A flood-control levee or national defense is considered a public good because they benefit society as a whole rather than individuals. They are non-excludable, meaning that everyone can benefit from flood protection or national defense regardless of whether they help pay for it. Additionally, their provision does not reduce the benefits available to others.
If the level of the river rises, the levee gives the river unnaturally high banks thus preventing flooding in the community which has them and virtually guaranteeing flooding in the next community downstream.

A levee breach or levee failure (the word dike or dyke can also be used instead of levee) is a situation where a levee fails or is intentionally breached, causing the previously contained water to flood the land behind the levee.A breach is when the levee breaks, and was unable to hold the water it was built for...not when it overflows....a common misconception....
it provides a benefit to the entire community by reducing the risk of flooding for all residents, regardless of whether they directly contribute to its upkeep. It is non-excludable and non-rivalrous, meaning that one person's use of the levee does not diminish its effectiveness for others.
