Underseepage and its Control: A Symposium: Investigation of Underseepage - Mississippi River Levees
The studies reported here in include a compilation of past underseepage reports; exploration and geological studies of numerous sites where underseepage was a serious problem in 1937; installation of piezometers at selected sites to measure substratum pressures; field pumping tests to determine the permeability of the sand aquifer; theoretical, model, and prototype studies of relief wells, partial cutoffs, and landside berms for controlling under see page; and observation and measurement of natural see page during the 1950 high water.
