Louisiana delegation to study Dutch flood-control systems
A few months ago, I posted on floating houses in the Netherlands -- literally, amphibious houses that rise and fall with the rivers upon which they float, a visionary project undertaken in a land that lies below sea level.
Well, post-Katrina, a Louisiana delegation led by Sen. Mary Landrieu is preparing to study Dutch flood-control systems, including dams, sea walls, and surge barriers. Obviously, there's a lot to learn.
Better late than never.
