Open House: Portland Metro Area Levee System
August 28, 2019 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
You’re invited to join the US Army Corps of Engineers and Levee Ready Columbia to learn more about the 27-mile levee system that reduces the risk of flooding for the Portland International Airport, 59,000 jobs, 7,500 homes, and over 2,000 acres of parks and open spaces along the Columbia River in Multnomah County.
Refreshments will be provided. Accessible via Trimet bus route #70.
During this event, USACE will share results of some of the analysis that has been done to identify the system’s vulnerabilities and discuss some of their ideas to make the system more resilient.
