Jay Johnson, project engineer, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Tulsa District, walks along the toe of the waterside slope of a levee, the point where the slope meets the natural ground, during a levee inspection in Wichita, Kansas, March 25, 2026.
During the inspection, the team assessed the Wichita-Valley Center Little Arkansas levee system, which includes five segments: Levees F, K, L and M and the West Branch Chisholm Creek West Bank. Levee inspections help identify signs of erosion, seepage or other issues that could impact the levee’s performance during high-water events.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Tulsa District, Levee Safety Program inspects, assesses and reports on levee system conditions across the region. In the Tulsa District, the team monitors more than 235 miles of levees. The team shares findings with local sponsors, who maintain and repair the levees. Routine inspections of this critical infrastructure that helps protect communities, businesses and essential services help ensure continued public safety by keeping these systems reliable during high-water events.
