Mount Vernon, Wash. (Nov. 7, 2006) - Builder 1st Class Steve Peck, from Vancouver, Wash., left, and Builder 1st Class Dirk Wehking, from Fulda, Minn., right, prepare sand bags to help construct a dyke in front of the City of Anacortes Water Treatment Plant. The height of the dyke was being raised to prevent flooding from the Skagit River. Military bases in the region have been called to help as Western Washington continues to receive near-record rainfall with more rain expected.
