The
Bethel Island Municipal
Improvement District
NEEDS YOUR HELP
Bethel Island is surrounded
by eleven miles of levee
that keep the Delta waters
out of the interior of the
island. Everyone living
behind a levee has a responsibility
to help maintain the integrity
of the levee. Some
activities must be restricted
to prevent levee failure
or interference with the
island drainage system. BIMID
has adopted ordinances to
guide residents’ selection
of appropriate activity.
Levees are engineered to
withstand water pressure. Any
modification to a levee can
weaken that critical ability. BIMID
personnel who patrol the
levee and are charged with
maintaining the levee must
be able to see the entire
slope of the levee, both
on the water side and the
land side, particularly with
respect to water seepage
and rodent damage.
Some vegetation, other than
grass, can be a problem. Tree
roots can be a perfect conduit
for water traveling through
the fragile levee. Also,
dumping of grass clipping,
other vegetation and junk
into the island drainage
ditches restricts water flow
and can cause flooding. |

Please do your part and
keep the vegetation around
your home trimmed and under
control. Keep all obstacles
off the top of the levee.

The following pictures are
examples of overgrown vegetation
and obstacles blocking the
