Fact is that the construction firm which built this levee informed the Corp of Engineers of the substrate problem at the time of construction and requested a change order in the amount of $809,000 to correct the problem. The change order was denighed.
" $809,000 to correct the problem"
I don't buy it. There is no way a few million would be enough to build a proper levee system. This is tin-foil land with a political agenda. Levees fail no matter what. They just do.
