🌧️ How the District Helps Protect Your Community from Flooding Flood protection isn't the same everywhere — and that's why the District uses different tools in different regions.
🌿 Natural systems like wetlands and floodplains help store water during heavy rain.
⚙️ Existing structures such as spillways, levees and canals give staff options to adjust water levels where possible.
Together, these approaches help reduce flood risk across our region, even though no system can control every storm.
