Abstract: This paper will document an example of Levee Safety Program efforts at the state level, in this case the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The focus of this paper will include the history of levee safety in Pennsylvania, the Commonwealth's current policies, and potential efforts, opportunities, and challenges with regards to the implementation of the National Levee Safety Program, in which Pennsylvania's program was chosen as a pilot to implement the Inventory and Review of levees that were not Federally constructed, nor are enrolled in the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Public Law (P. L.) 84/99 Rehabilitation Program.

Key words: Pennsylvania, levee, safety, rehabilitation

摘要： 以美国宾夕法尼亚州为例，介绍了州政府堤坝安全项目的执行案例，重点包括宾夕法尼亚州的堤坝安全历史、联邦政府现行的政策以及为响应美国国家堤坝安全项目的实施，宾夕法尼亚州可能采取的行动、面临的机遇和挑战。在美国国家堤坝安全项目中，宾夕法尼亚州的堤坝安全计划被选为试点，以对非联邦修建、也未在美国陆军工程师兵团公法（Public Law 84/99，后文简写为PL 84/99）补强加固项目中注册的堤坝建立清单和实施检查。
