Doesn't matter, the Army Corp of Engineers builds more levees than just
what's on the ICW. They build and maintain almost all the levees around
N.O. on a federal-local cost-sharing basis.


Building a levee and being responsible for a levee are two different things.
Show me that the Corps built the canal walls that failed, or that they were
responsible for any levees that failed.
