| 摘要： | In early August, the New Orleans Engineer District released the final version of the Lake Pontchartrain & Vicinity (LPV) and the West Bank & Vicinity (WBV) General Re-evaluation Reports, which detail the Corps' plan to raise New Orleans-area levees and floodwalls now through the year 2078. The levee lifts and new floodwalls are needed to ensure the Hurricane and Storm Damage Risk Reduction System (HSDRRS)-the levee system shielding the New Orleans area from inundating hurricanes-continues to provide protection from storm surge that has a 1 percent chance of occurring in any given year. That level of protection is needed for the region to qualify for the Federal Emergency Management Agency's National Flood Insurance Program. |
