LEVEE  

                                                          Cameron B.

   Natural levees are the highest ground on a floodplain, they remain dry during all kinds of floods. They slop gradully into the adjacent floodplain.

    The picture is showing the water runoff. The slightly sloped angel lets the water drain into the water floodplain.
