U.S. Army Corps of Engineers contractors worked last week to help rehabilitate flood damaged areas of the Waitsburg levee system. The levee was damaged by sustained high flows during the 2017 flood season. The project is expected to last two or three weeks. In this photo, compliance biologist Benjamin W.
