This fact and the sometimesquite heavy current of the overflow necessitated aclass of roadbed construction which would at once re-sist any current pressure to which it might be sub-ject and at the same time turn the currents into properchannels through culverts and other openings.

This material will remainin place under the most adverse conditions of floodand current. Dikes and levees are now nuder construction forthe reclamation of this district.
