Gabe wote this about levees: <br /> <br />"If a city has a local problem, they are responsible for addressing it." <br /> <br />Of course, in many situations this is indeed correct. However, because New Orleans is situated next to the Mississippi river, which is a navigable river, the levees are installed as much to preserve navigation on the river and its commerce as flood control of New Orleans. Again, the levees around New Orleans are a federal responsibility. <br /> <br />Again, the problem has been known for over 10 years and the City of New Orleans through the Louisiana Federal Legislators have been trying to fix this known problem. <br /> <br />Jim <br />
