Oakville, Iowa, July 6th, 2008 -- Lynn Daughtry, Construction Representative with the Army Corps of Engineers and James Melledy, with Matrix Environmental, Inc. discuss the progress of the road repair. When finished, it will 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
