Title: Missouri River Levee Damage
Scale_Denominator: 24000
Description
Abstract
Geo-dataset delineating the Missouri River levees which were damaged by the
flood of 1993.
Purpose
Generally used in geographic and natural resource analyses.
Supplemental_Information
Procedures_Used
Corps of Engineers survey maps were used to accurately locate the levees
on USGS 1:24000 Quad maps. The reasoning for this is that the survey maps
varied in scale from 1 inch = 800 feet, to 1 inch = 5000 feet. Therefore
using the USGS 1:24000 quad maps gives a consistant level of accuracy for all
levees. With the linework located and highlighted on the quad maps, the
features were digitized using an Altek digitizer.

defines that part of the levee district not defined
by the levee or other form of protection.
CONC. WALL - Concrete wall.
RAILROAD - Railroad embankment.
NAME: Name of the levee district.
PAT:
NAME: Name of the levee district.
STATE: State abbreviation.
COUNTY: County name.

LENGTH(MILES): Length of the levee system as determined by field survey.
PROTECT_YRS: Level of protection in terms of years as determined by
analysis of the hydraulic characteristics of the
drainage basin.
UPSTRM_ELEV: Elevation of the upstream end of the MAJOR_STREAM river
levee crown. This is usually the corner where the main
river levee and the upstream tie-back flank levee meet.
Elevation is measured in feet above sea level
(M.S.L. 1929).
UPSTRM_HEIGHT: Approximate height of the MAJOR_STREAM river levee
crown at the same location as the UPSTRM_ELEV, measured
in feet above the landside ground elevation.
DWNSTRM_ELEV: Elevation of the downstream end of the MAJOR_STREAM river
levee crown or downstream tie-back flank levee where
overtopping is first estimated to occur. Elevation is
measured in feet above sea level (M.S.L. 1929).
DWNSTM_HEIGHT: Approximate height of the major stream river levee
crown in feet above the landside ground elevation, at
the downstream end of the MAJOR_STREAM river levee
where the DWNSTRM_ELEV was measured.
LEVEE_MATERL: Main type of soil used in the levee construction.
FOUND_MATERL: Main type of soil in the foundation at the base of the
levee.
PL_84_99: Whether or not the levee district meets PL-84-99 minimum
conditions to be eligible for Federal cost sharing support
in event of levee failure or overtopping.
YES = Levee is eligible for Federal cost sharing.
NO = Levee does not mee the minimum requirements to be eligible.
FEMA_CERT: Whether or not the levee district meets FEMAs minimum
conditions for certification. Levee must provide at least
a 100 year level of protection.
YES = Levee meets FEMAS minimum conditions.
NO = Levee does not meet FEMAs minimum conditions.
ACRES: Area protected by the levee as measured in acres.
CONSTRUCTION: Whether or not Federal Funds were used to construct the
levee.
F = Federal funds were used.
N = Non-Federal funds were used.
LEVEE_TYPE: Type of area protected by the levee.
A = Agricultural.
AR = Agricultural and Residential
E = Environmental.
I = Industrial
R = Residential
FAILURE_TYPE: Type of failure in 1993.
Overtopping = Levee was overtopped before any structural failure
occurred.
Breach = Levee failed when water level was below the crown of the
levee.
FAILURE_DATE: Date that the initial failure occurred.
