Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Levees, flood walls, pumps

Higher and more resistant levees and flood walls were constructed throughout the region. Emergency pumps and canal closures were installed at the ends of the outfall canals. The pumps were designed to significantly reduce flooding heights in 100- and 500-year events.
