Managing the mighty Mississippi River is no easy task -- the Mississippi River has been changing course throughout its history, but so have the people who have been living and working on its banks. Watch this documentary to learn how the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has used levees, revetment, the Mat Sinking Unit and other means to manage the Mississippi River.
