To honor Andy, please wear a life jacket when boating to increase your chances of surviving carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. Boaters should use a marine CO detector, seat children in the forward-most seating on a boat, avoid idling and exposure to emissions from other boats, and always maintain fresh air circulation.

You know what isn’t cool? Drowning. USACE data shows 88% of drowning victims are male, meaning men are about 7 times more likely to drown than women. Gentlemen, if you want to impress someone, start by buckling that life jacket.

As we wrap up this "Love Your Levee" campaign, here are some things to think about.

-When you live near rivers, flooding WILL happen.
-While levees can greatly benefit a community by reducing the intensity and frequency of flooding from nearby rivers and coastlines, no levee is risk free.
-When it comes to risk of any kind, you should remain informed. The time to learn and understand your risk is before a flood emergency.
-Levee experts work hard to inspect, repair, and improve the flood risk reduction systems in your community. The number one goal is always life safety.
