Answer:

Levees can have effects on a stream like

Step-by-step explanation:

  • They can break and cause more erosion than would have been otherwise.
  • The streams will eventually take on their natural courses and will then eventually flow over the top of the levee
  • The flooding can get worsen.
  • An increase in flooding upstream and downstream.
