February construction Project Updates

Stockpile 1 - Progress has been severely impacted by rain every few days.  When weather permits, we are working our haul roads in the Spillway and the stockpile location in LaPlace.  We are also continuing to excavate material allowing it to begin the drying process, because the material that is excavated is very wet.  As a result of the weather, we are currently scheduled to complete this project in the early fall of 2023.

Myrtle Grove - This project continues to progress quickly and is ahead of schedule.  So far we have placed 74,000 square yards of separator fabric under access roads, 55,000 Cubic Yards of sand for those access roads and preload location, excavated over 230,000 cubic yards of material for the drainage canal, placed 76,000 square yards of Levee Support Geotextile, and built 170,000 cubic yards of clay levee.

This project is scheduled to be completed in the summer of 2025 but we anticipate a change request from the Corps of Engineers that will significantly extend the execution period.
