The Rankin Hinds Pearl River Flood & Drainage Control District, called the Levee Board, is confident that the "One Lake" project will address flood control in Jackson.

Mayor of Monticello, Miss., Martha Watts, right, joined them, sharing her fears of downstream effects on local industry. Photo by Nick Judin
