About

Howard Bend
Levee District

The Howard Bend Levee District is located in the Cities of Maryland Heights and Chesterfield, St. Louis County, Missouri approximately 17 miles west of the City of St. Louis.  The Howard Bend Levee, designed for the 500-year Missouri River flood event, extends from about river mile 38 to river mile 30.4 above the Mississippi River. 

The project consists of a 7.6 mile long levee that protects the Maryland Heights area from Missouri River floods. The system also primarily implements flood control management for the Creve Coeur and Fee Fee Creeks and Creve Coeur Lake.
