If I read this right (and I'm an inlander, so I'm largely iggorant about levies and the like) building levies and maintaining a good shipping lane has the advantages of way reduced flood damage and commercial shipping but possibly the disadvantage of eventually losing some of what one was trying to protect with the levy in the first place.

Damn, I hate it when that happens.
