I didn’t actually. I was responding specifically to your comment that the water in the ground doesn’t “go deeper.” That has nothing to do with flood control, as the water we are talking about has already seeped into the ground.

No, problem is its just at the surface "ground" (a few centimeters deep) and not going into the ground water.
