City at Risk
Season 6
Episode 4
Since its founding, Sacramento has relied on a patchwork levee system to hold back rising rivers. The 1997 floods revealed serious weaknesses, and many levees still need repair. Efforts to improve flood control, including changes to Folsom Dam, have faced rising costs. In 2006, heavy storms nearly caused disaster, highlighting the urgency for stronger protection.
