The COE does a good job with harnessing the Mississippi in Louisiana. Probably too good of a job, as the levee system allows silt to fly off the continental shelf instead of building up the river delta.
Lessons were learned after 1973 and improvements were made to the old river control structure system. It will probably take an earthquake knocking out the old river control structure to reroute the Mississippi now.
