1. my apologies for the confusion.
    i meant the levee behind my neighborhood (in lower terrebonne).

    it has failed multiple times in past and it’s in a battle with mother nature right now too.

  2. Easy now. Don't tempt Mother Nature.
  3. When is the last time, if ever, any work/improvements were made to the levee?
  4. I have a friend who is a heavy equipment operator. He has been working on adding more dirt to the levee from New Orleans to St. Bernard Parish for the last 7 or 8 months.
  5. His swimming pool.
  6. almost continuous for last 10-12 years.

  7. Wow! What is the Federal, State or combination of both governments that allowed it to reach the point where it's taken this long for improvements?
  8. feds, state, and local. a trifecta of clusterfuck.

    it failed in ‘02 for Lili ; ‘03 for TS Bill ; ‘05 for Rita ; ‘08 for Ike.
  9. Hi. I'm from the government and I'm here to help you.
