摘要

The total number of miles of levees is unknown but has been estimated at over 100,000 in the United States. Like dams, levees are distributed throughout the Nation and are owned by all levels of government as well as private entities. Unlike dams, levees are geospatially extended systems that can run for multiple miles and may consist of several segments under different governance units with widely differing administrative, maintenance, and budgetary capabilities. Professional organizations provide a valuable service by encouraging communication and information sharing among levee owners; however, a group of levee experts and representatives from the sector's professional organizations also expressed the need for a more cohesive forum that could address levee security issues in the context of ongoing levee safety, integrity, and resiliency initiatives. The Levee Sub-Sector Coordinating Council (LSCC), organized within the public-private partnership framework as established through the Critical Infrastructure Partnership Advisory Council, provides that forum. Among the LSCC's priorities are assisting the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in identifying the Nation's most critical levee systems, providing outreach and assistance to levee owners in the area of security, and ensuring the integration of the interests of levee owners in the Dams Sector's overall activities and initiatives.
