                                The US Army Corps of Engineers has developed

                                a Flood-Fight Handbook that includes information on sandbagging,                                      earth fill levees, interior drainage treatment, and flood fight problems.

They also have a Sandbagging Techniques pamphlet which includes procedures and safety tips on efficient bagging operations.
