High water levels on the Feather River in California
SUTTER COUNTY, Calif. — A view of the high water levels on the Feather River near the recently completed setback levee at Star Bend in the Plumas Lake area here, March 18, 2011. The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Sacramento District is monitoring flood control projects in the Sacramento region as a series of rainstorms continue to heavily hit northern California. Construction of the Feather River setback levee began in 2008. It was completed in October 2009 by the Sacramento District, the Three Rivers Levee Improvement Authority and Teichert Construction. Levee maintenance and repair is the responsibility of local agencies. The Sacramento District continues to coordinate with the California Department of Water Resources and is ready to respond to flood emergencies if the state requests federal assistance.
