Annual maintenance activities to improve flood-risk mitigation for portions of the Los Angeles River under USACE Los Angeles District responsibility have begun Sept. 23 near the Taylor Yard in Los Angeles. The LA District maintains 22 miles of the LA River Flood Control Channel.
LA District staff and leadership from the Operational Protection Division discuss efforts to improve safety Sept. 22 atop the Whittier Narrows Dam in LA County, CA. Per federal law, USACE works with sheriff and police departments to patrol and protect its civil works projects.
Flood waters are extremely dangerous. Never drive on flood roads — almost half of flood deaths happen in vehicles. If you’re driving, stay off bridges over fast-moving waters, do not drive around barricades & stay inside your car if it is trapped in rapidly moving water.
The LA District continues to maintain coastal infrastructure as part of its civil works navigation mission to mitigate against coastal erosion and enable safe vessel navigation across the Southern California coast, including the ongoing project Sept. 17 in Redondo Beach, CA
Civil Works has reprogrammed $100 million of surplus capital through our Building Infrastructure, Not Paperwork initiative, deploying unused funds from completed projects directly into high-priority infrastructure nationwide. We are committed to advancing infrastructure projects.
Mark your calendars! USACE will waive day use fees normally charged at boat launch ramps and swimming beaches at its recreation areas nationwide in recognition of National Public Lands Day Saturday, Sept. 26.
