FILE - March 8, 2018 file photo, workers open the gates of the Bonnet Carre spillway, a river diversion structure, which diverts water from the rising Mississippi River, above right, to Lake Pontchartrain, in Norco, La. The Mississippi River is falling at New Orleans, and crews have begun closing the historic flood control structure that diverts the river’s water into a brackish lake, the Army Corps of Engineers said Tuesday, March 26, 2019. The process could take about 10 days to two weeks if the weather remains good, Corps spokesman Matt Roe said. (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert, File)
