STOCKTON, Calif. — A road encroaches on the toe of a levee in the Stockton, Calif., area, shown during a levee inspection in 2010. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers inspects levees in its Rehabilitation and Inspection Program to ensure levees don't pose an unacceptable risk to lives and to provide levee managers and residents with detailed information on the condition of levees to help them make informed decisions about safety.
