Flood protection facility or “flow control facility” means those physical structural works which have been constructed specifically to modify flooding in order to reduce the extent of the areas within a community subject to flooding and the extent of the depths of associated flooding. Such a system typically includes dams, reservoirs, levees, or dikes.
