..."Those sandbags can be contaminated with a lot of bad things from the river - feces, chemicals, all kinds of bacteria," said Corps spokesman Ron Fournier. "You don't know what could be in the water, and that absorbs into the sandbags."

But removing them will be a monumental task, just as filling them was.

..Both the bags and the sand inside them can be taken to landfills. Most of the bags are made of polypropylene that will break down after several months.
