Three minute video of levee construction work Aug. 28, 2012, along the American River’s north bank between Spanos Court and Campus Commons golf course in Sacramento, Calif. Crews are excavating a haul route next to the levee, which will be used for loading material into trucks at a lower and safer height during construction. Lower loading-heights keeps work safely away from the overhead power lines, which are scheduled to be de-energized during nighttime-only work lasting from September 10-15. Construction of a 900-foot seepage cutoff wall, partially located under the power lines, will commence at that time. This necessary work is a joint flood-risk reduction effort between the Corps’ Sacramento District, the state of California’s Central Valley Flood Protection Board and Sacramento Area Flood Control District.
