"They were unaware of the levees we have in some of the areas where they show having 1-5 or 5-10 feet of water over ground in Raceland, Mathews, Lockport and Larose," said Bourgeois in the statement. "They did not therefore include them in their analysis and mapping effort."

Some of the biggest floodwater concerns are near the St. Francisville area.  Up to five feet of floodwaters are expected in Houma and Morgan City, according to the Army Corps of Engineers.
