It's been known for a long time that a lot of our flood provention techniques just move the problem (which is sometimes useful), and often causes floods when they happen to be worse, if less frequent. We have known that a lot of these techniques effect wild life too for a long time. I am glad we are finally starting to consider our existing installations instead of just adding more.
