Eventually, a section will collapse from accumulated rainfall, and form another "lake" (aka sinkhole that has filled with water). Just pull up any map of Florida, and look at all the lakes that have formed over millions of years.

They do occur, but probably on the order of once every few years--not really common enough to worry about, but it is a possibility.
