Sutter County Water Resources Chief Daniel Peterson asks Sutter County residents to think about flood hazzards for areas south of Yuba City near levees.  Army Corps of Engineers conducted tests on levees along the Feather, Sacramento Rivers, and along the Sutter Bypass to determine if the levees are strong enough to withstand possible flooding. Peterson said the results for tests done on levees that protect Sutter County south of Stewart Road and east of the Sutter Bypass “were unable to demonstrate that the levees meet the new criteria,” and “They don’t offer 100-year flood protection.” See News10 article    See flooding video  Call (916) 984-9320 for flood insurance
