    Flooding & Home Protection

    Floods are among Earth’s most common–and most destructive–natural hazards.

    With as many as 19 major floods in a year and hundreds more minor floods causing millions of dollars in damage to property and infrastructure flooding is one of the worlds most destructive natural disasters.

    Every year close to 100 people lose their life due to flooding.

    If you live in an area prone to flooding keeping your property and family safe is a priority.

    US Flood Control has a quick economic solution to personal flood protection.

    Visit our Home Owners Kit page and see how this simple to use dam can protect you home from flood damage.

    Terrebonne installs temporary levees in Gibson, Bayou Black

    The smell of rubber filled the air on Tuesday as about 20 National Guard soldiers unrolled temporary dams that will be used to protect portions of North Bayou Black Drive from further flooding.

    Terrebonne Parish received funding for nearly 2.5 miles worth of Tiger Dams, or temporary levees that are inflated with water, from the state. Local fire departments will fill these dams with water.

    They are the latest in the effort to mitigate flooding that the expected opening the Morganza Spillway on Sunday may cause.

    Are Tiger Dams the Answer

    Memories of Super Storm Sandy returned as Tamara Andreatta, RIOC’s Director of Asset Management, drove a group of us around Roosevelt Island while Frank Farance narrated, pointing out the storm’s high water marks, some still visible on building foundations. Tiger Dams may help us withstand worse future storms as failures elsewhere make them inevitable.
