And it said that the increasing delays faced by airline passengers highlighted the need to modernize the outdated air traffic control system. For the first time this year the group examined the nation’s levees and gave them a D-minus. The report warned that many of the nation’s levees were built more than 50 years ago to protect crops but now protect communities.
