(KLZA)-- The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will host a levee meeting at the Holt County Courthouse in Oregon, Missouri Wednesday evening beginning at 6. 

Corps of Engineers representatives from the Kansas City District will provide updates and answer questions during the meeting.  

All landowners, farmers and levee sponsors are encouraged to attend the meeting which is to focus on building a levee through Holt County to federal standards, hoping to join the federal system at a later time.

Part of the plan  includes a tie in with the proposed Hold County levee with an Atchison County, Missouri levee in the federal levee system.  

A joint meeting of Holt and Atchison County representatives is planned for Monday, July 13, during which a conference call with Corps of Engineers officials will take place. 

The Atchison County levee is under the direction of the Corps Omaha District.
