Levees are engineered structures designed to prevent flooding by acting as barriers that contain or redirect water from rivers, lakes, or other bodies of water. They help protect surrounding land, infrastructure, and communities from floodwaters during heavy rainfall or snowmelt. Additionally, levees can manage water flow and maintain the stability of waterways, contributing to environmental and agricultural management.
