Oakville, Iowa, July 6th, 2008 -- A truck dumps a load of rock into a levee breech as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers works to repair a road to improve access into Oakville, and at the same time contain the flow of the Iowa River, which breached it's levee in mid June. After the road is repaired, the Corps can begin repairing the levee which will bring relief to the town of Oakville, which is still partially underwater. Susie Shapira/FEMA
