that’s in Plaquemines Parish, not NO. It’s a local levee, and it sucks for the 100-200 people who will be flooded, but this was somewhat expected and doesn’t have any wider implications beyond the immediate area.

They flooded during Katrina ... rebuilt their PRIVATE levee and then rebuilt their homes.

Looks like their calculated risk didn't pay off ... sure hope they don't expect fedzilla to bail them out again.
