USACE Earth Day 2024 in West Sacramento

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Sacramento District

April 22, 2024 | 1:22

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Sacramento District and the City of West Sacramento hosted an Earth Day media event on April 22, 2024, along the Linden Road river access.
Rep. Doris Matsui and Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works, Hon. Michael Connor, gave remarks following a short flood risk reduction project tour.
The Southport Setback Levee was designed with nature in mind and created more than 100 acres of riparian habitat and more than three miles of shaded riparian habitat. This effort was completed by the California Department of Water Resources and the West Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency as part of the overall West Sacramento levee improvement project.
The West Sacramento levee improvement project includes more than 30 miles of levee improvements around the north and south basins of West Sacramento, reducing flood risk for thousands of residents, property, and businesses. The levee improvements include adding slurry walls, slope protection, relief wells, and seepage berms to provide the needed flood protection for the north and south basins of West Sacramento.
