Whirlwind Tour of Failed Corps Levees ~Society of Professional Journalists
~On board the bus will be a senior representative of the Army Corps of Engineers’ New Orleans District office, which oversaw the construction; a representative of the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority-East, which pairs with the state of Louisiana as local sponsor for the system; and Levees.org founder Sandy Rosenthal, a corps critic who has helped ensure the new system was built correctly. We’ll drive through several of the areas worst flooded when levees and floodwalls failed in the aftermath of Katrina.
