LEV LEVEE EE SCR SCREENINGS EENINGS

  • Initial Risk Assessment of the Levee System
  • Purpose:
  • To Prioritize Levee Systems Based on Risk and provide initial LSAC.
  • Develop a Relative Risk Ranking for Corps Levees.
  • Input Into Screenings From:
  • NLD
  • Routine and Periodic Inspections
  • Historic Performance During High Water
  • Limited Engineering Assessments
  • Data on Consequences (Population, Structures, etc.)
  • Status
  • All 71 segments (56 systems) approved by National Cadre
  • 49 Systems with Final LSAC from HQ LSO

WHY ENGAGE THE MEDIA? Media are a communication channel to the public

  • What the public thinks, depends on what the public hears

and sees

  • To build and maintain public support, the district MUST

keep the public informed Gets message to more people in a timely fashion Media will tell your story with or without your participation!
