UPDATE ON GREENUP INDUSTRIES' construction PROJECT WITH USACE AT MYRTLE GROVE

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is continuing to make progress with the New Orleans to Venice (NOV) Hurricane Protection project in Plaquemines Parish, La. The purpose of the NOV project is to provide an improved levee system for storm risk reduction for Plaquemines Parish by repairing and restoring the original project levees, accelerating the completion of unconstructed portions of the authorized project, and armoring critical elements of the authorized project.

The NOV federal levees are located on the east bank of Plaquemines from Phoenix to Bohemia and on the west bank from St. Jude to Venice. Currently, along the La Reussite to Myrtle Grove levee reach, USACE is constructing approximately seven miles of new drainage canals and levees. USACE workers and their construction partners are placing embankment material at the site of the levee construction, slowly building up layers of soil and material for the levee. So far, 85% of the canal have been completed and approximately 50% of the levee has been built along this particular levee reach. This portion of the project is scheduled to be completed by calendar year 2026.

GREENUP INDUSTRIES

US Army Corps of Engineers, Vicksburg District, awarded Greenup Cajun JV, LLC a $102.5 million dollar construction contract to build hurricane protection structures and move levees and drainage canals in Louisiana’s Plaquemines Parish. 

Greenup Cajun JV, LLC, presented the lowest bid of four for the “New Orleans to Venice 1st lift levee and drainage canal relocation project, La Reussite to Myrtle Grove, Plaquemines Parish.” The project will consist of clearing, grubbing, excavating new drainage canals, placing culverts and drainage structures, building new T-walls and levee ramp crossings, placing levee embankments, geotextile work, turf establishment, and surfacing. The estimated cost of the project is $102,452,461.00.

Facilities Maintenance - Protecting Your Pipes from Freezing Temperature

Picture1.png

When we experience freezing temperatures in our typically warm, humid climates throughout the South, many residential homes and businesses are left wondering how to prevent frozen pipes. Greenup Industries specializes in In-Plant Property Management including Plumbing and Septic Maintenance, so we’ve asked our experts for a few tips that might help you when temperatures dip closer to freezing.

Safeguard Your Pipes
During freezing temperatures, your pipes are at high risk. If they freeze over, they can sometimes burst causing a lot of financial strain to fix or replace. In order to avoid this, let your sinks drip overnight. This helps prevent pipes from freezing. In addition, open cabinet doors to kitchen and bathroom sinks to allow warm air to protect and circulate around plumbing. Keep doors, windows and garages closed during these times, too, to better insulate and warm plumbing.

Exterior Pipes Need Different Protection
Spigots and outside pipes and plumbing require a bit of a different approach when preparing to prevent freezing. Wrap outside pipes in small towels and let drip if necessary. 

Prevent Frozen Septic Tanks 

Septic tanks freezing over can be an unimaginable mess for your business or home. To avoid dealing with what could be a severely foul occurrence, take the following precautions. Empty your septic tank. Yes, this is regular maintenance, but not always the first task people jump at when temperatures are already uncomfortably low. If a full tank freezes, this could cause a septic tank to burst. Another thing to consider is cracks and open areas. Be sure to inspect for any potential leaking as this could also invite more liquid to seep into the tank and cause bursting. And of course, keep water moving through the system if possible. Water in motion won’t freeze, so if your business is closed due to inclement weather, be sure to check back in daily and induce some motion through the system.

Greenup Industries is a full-service maintenance provider throughout the Gulf Coast Region. Let us help you prepare or fix issues concerning your plumbing. Contact us at info@greenupind.com or call us at 225-283-4843.

Greenup Industries Continues to Excel in USACE Myrtle Grove Levee and Drainage Canal and Hurricane Protection Project

Greenup Industries partnered with Cajun Industries, LLC on a construction contract to build hurricane protection structures and move levees and drainage canals in the New Orleans area. Greenup presented the lowest bid of four for the "New Orleans to Venice 1st lift levee and drainage canal relocation project, La Reussite to Myrtle Grove, Plaquemines Parish". The project consists of clearing, grubbing, excavating new drainage canals, placing culverts and drainage structures, building new T-walls and levee ramp crossings, placing levee embankments, geotextile work, turf establishment, and surfacing. The estimated cost of the project recently increased 6% from $ 102,452,461.00 to $108,783,413. The project has an expected completion date of Summer, 2026.

Continuing to excel in terms of production and quality, Greenup has been making great progress in several areas. Those include: clearing the levee footprint, reaching completion of 81 percent of the entire project, excavating another 1500 cubic yards (cy) of drainage canal and a total of 12,500 linear feet (LF) of 48" culvert pipes have been installed to facilitate proper drainage of rainwater. "This project continues to progress ahead of schedule with a completion date currently in the Summer of 2026. Several change orders are being finalized, which will have little effect on the schedule but will provide a much better level of risk reduction for the people of Plaquemines Parish," says Rodney Greenup, President of Greenup Industries.

Five Tips to Improve Safety at Your Facility

work-safety-protection-equipment-on-wooden-backgro-LXDEBRA.JPG

To keep our contractors, vendors, full-time employees, or site visitors safe, Greenup Industries maps every on-site journey from when someone arrives until they sign out from the premises. For nearly a decade, we have learned much about the different safety and security requirements of various industries and organizations. Here are our top 5 safety and security recommendations:

Perform ongoing safety training. 

Providing safety training for employees is essential for creating a culture of workplace safety. A workforce with a strong understanding of safety guidelines and best practices is more likely to recognize potential hazards before they occur. This can lead to fewer injuries and help you avoid costly losses in productivity and employee morale.

Promote a good safety culture

Workplace safety starts with a strong safety culture, the collection of values and beliefs that employers and employees share concerning risks in the workplace. Effective leadership is critical because cultural change is complex and challenging. Leaders need to embrace the safety agenda and lead the efforts across the overall organization.

If you're committed to a safe work environment, find ways to get your employees onboard. Encourage employees to get to know the standards and to report potentially hazardous situations. The OSHA rules and regulations can be a stiff read, making your inductions or training interactive or video-based. 

Keep contractor records up to date.

To keep your site safe and secure, your contractors and vendors must keep their records up to date. Our proprietary software, Greenup Tracker, ensures all of our contractors and vendors have up-to-date records, including relevant qualifications, insurances, and other documents. Contractors and vendors can log in, edit their records, and keep them up to date.

Consider using photo ID scanning for Visitors. 

Providing touchless registration will ensure safer job sites for your workers. Registration, virtual orientations, virtual training, and automated health checklists can all be accessed through their photo ID card. 

This adds an extra layer of security and allows them to verify better people's identity coming on-site, but it also makes sign-in a lot faster.

Make sure your emergency response plan is not "one-size-fits-all." 

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) warns that workplace evacuations are more common than people think. There is a broad range of possible emergencies, including explosions, natural disasters, hazardous material releases, biological accidents, civil disturbances, or workplace violence. Your company needs more than a "one-size-fits-all" response plan.

Implement technology to protect lone worker safety

Lone worker safety applications (smartphone apps) can allow users to notify employers and emergency personnel to help locate a worker with a simple action such as pulling a wrist tether from an unlocked phone. Once signaled, the appropriate authorities are immediately dispatched to the worker's location through GPS monitoring. In addition, previously programmed information about the employee will be sent to the dispatch team, requiring the threatened worker to enter zero information while the event is taking place. There are several great apps available to protect your lone workers.

Going beyond compliance

Safety is a crucial enabler of business continuity, operational performance, and productivity. Effectively addressing these five areas will help organizations become safety compliant.

  • Prevent workplace injuries

  • Improve compliance with laws and regulations

  • Reduce costs, including significant reductions in workers' compensation premiums

  • Engage workers

  • Enhance their social responsibility goals

  • Increase productivity and enhance overall business operations

Employers will find that implementing these recommended practices brings other benefits. Studies show that when companies value safety, operational excellence will follow.

The Importance of Diversity and Inclusion Efforts in the Construction Industry

Diversity, equity, and inclusion drive a workforce because everyone is encouraged and empowered to be their best authentic selves. To ensure that a culture of diversity is continually developed in the construction industry, we enjoy opening the dialogue on why workforce diversity is a chief asset. Since Greenup strives to reflect the rich diversity in the communities where the labor force lives, works, and builds, we thought we'd highlight why minority inclusion is a business priority. 

 

Diversity in Construction is Lacking

 

Women make up just 9% of the construction workforce in the United States. In 2017, women held just 7% of construction-management jobs in the United States, though it's nearly twice that in the United Kingdom. The construction industry has made significant progress to be more inclusive over the last few years, yet LGBTQ+ employees are still largely underrepresented. Of 24,000 staff surveyed by The Construction Leadership Council, just 1% identified as bisexual, 0.8% as gay, and 0.2% as lesbian. The most common ethnicity of construction workers is White (52.9%), followed by Hispanic or Latino (27.7%), Black or African American (11.1%), and Unknown (4.0%).

 

Potential solutions to improve diversity in the workforce include policies that affirmatively promote the use of companies owned by minorities, women, and other underrepresented groups and bystander intervention. Changing how minority-owned businesses are viewed in the construction industry is another. Greenup addresses this concern in our workforce through intentionally inclusive recruiting and hiring efforts, safe spaces for learning discussions, and industry forums to address systemic racism. 

 

Lack of D&I Sinks Productivity

 

Despite being one of the largest sectors in the global economy, the $10 trillion construction industry needs to catch up in productivity growth, which slowed to 1% last year. The result? Poor performance, project management, and execution, as well as cost and time overruns. The problem can only worsen in the United States, where construction's contribution to the economy has hit a seven-year high point.

 

At the same time, companies complain about a shortage of skilled workers. For these reasons and more, recruiting talent from underrepresented groups is a business imperative. 

 

EDI Action Plans Can Shift the Industry Culture

 

Construction companies have committed to initiatives designed to foster D&I, often packaged in EDI action plans. These programs include focus groups, coaching, training, mentoring, networking, and career development. Competitive advantage may go to companies whose workforces look more like the communities where they work.

 

D&I infuses organizations with new ideas, fresh perspectives, and a willingness to consider alternatives. With a more diverse workforce better at problem-solving and decision-making, construction companies can outperform their peers financially and fairly—with inclusion and respect.

 

About Greenup Industries

 

Based in Kenner, Greenup Industries offers contracting and specialized construction services for industrial, commercial, and municipal clients. The company's proprietary software, the Greenup Tracker, can connect third-party vendors with facilities that need painters, plumbers, groundskeepers, carpenters, etc.

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.

checklist-box-PTH8EMY.JPG

Did you know that only 12 percent of employees believe their organizations are doing a good job onboarding new employees? 

That means the majority believe there is room for improvement. 

Without effective onboarding, it takes longer for workers to become profit centers for your business. 

And if you don’t have the right process for onboarding, you will have:

·      Slower third party turnaround time, which impacts revenue opportunities

·      Improper third party vetting, leading to increased legal compliance risk

·      Compliance wastes time and resources, and cannot focus on higher

At Greenup Industries we are committed to providing the leadership and resources to help you achieve your project goals. 

Our unmatched expertise and solutions oriented workforce ensure that your project no matter how big will be handled efficiently through ease of process.

At Greenup Industries we have a proven track record of ensuring that large scale projects are simplified through ease of process.

Streamline processes with Greenup Tracker

Greenup light.PNG

For 30 years, Greenup Industries has provided professional and specialized services and procurement support to a diverse clientele, addressing the needs of the oil and gas and telecommunication industries as well as government agencies. Now, with the release of Greenup Tracker, its proprietary software that allows for a more streamlined process, Greenup Industries seeks to further solidify its reputation as a trusted solutions provider.

"We developed Greenup Tracker as a two-pronged solution," explained CEO Rodney Greenup. "For our clients, we wanted to reduce the amount of time spent administering contracts, tracking vendors, and entering data manually from multiple monitoring systems. For our vendors, we wanted to standardize and ease the process for getting them onboard, vetted, and paid. The system is a win-win for everyone involved."

During the past five years, Greenup Industries' strategy has been to identify opportunities to retrofit and change systems, so they work more efficiently.

"We first realized that one of the most impactful ways to cut costs in facilities management is to have our vendors be a part of the Greenup team," Greenup said. "Now we have thousands of vendors and can offer our clients so much more: safe onboarding, quality control, and oversight, and the assumption of liability and indemnity, to name a few."

Quality and accountability

At Greenup Industries, all vendors are managed in the same consistent manner. Each is vetted and must be insured and capable of performing quality work. Before onboarding, vendors must sign an indemnity agreement, submit to drug testing, and have a clean safety record (no safety incidents within the past 12-36 months). To ensure accountability and quality assurance, a Greenup representative escorts the vendor to the worksite, and any on-site trainings.

Ease of process

Greenup Tracker provides vendors with an efficient system and reliable terms for payment.

"Through Greenup Tracker, you can easily add a work order, check on the progress of any job and monitor your payment status with ease," Greenup said. "As a preferred vendor, you can gain access to multiple job sites and immediately see the impact of growing your business."

Greenup Industries is one of the largest third-party-services trading houses in the U.S. and has offices established throughout Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. Currently, Greenup is looking to expand to Florida and in the Mississippi Valley toward Missouri.

"As we grow, we stay mindful of our goal to provide the finest-quality services to our clients, to continually improve performance, and to add value to whatever services we provide," Greenup stated.

At Greenup Industries safety is our middle name

female-safety-inspector-with-digital-tablet-at-con-RXLPVGA.jpg

The safety regulations at any refinery are extremely important and directly correlated to a staff's level of danger. Throughout the Gulf South, there are a large number of refineries, meaning there are thousands of workers who are at risk of injury for several hours a day. It is our job to make sure our people are safe.

Greenup Industries puts safety at the forefront of every job.

There are inherent risks present in the industrial industry that must not be overlooked. It takes a detail-oriented, meticulous team to provide the proper environment for those working in the refining industry, which is why you don't often hear of major accidents or disasters on sites. Extensive procedures are conducted to manage potential risks all the while keeping operations running smoothly for all workers and the communities that surround these sites. 


Because of the high safety standards, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports:

  • Refining is one of the safest industrial activities in the US, with fewer worker injuries than sectors such as education, retail sales, and financial services

  • The rate of non-fatal injuries among U.S. refinery workers declined by 36% between 2003 and 2011

  • Refiners operate under extensive self-imposed safety measures designed to provide maximum protection to our communities,

Greenup Industries has been recognized for its efforts to keep safety standards a top priority in all of our work and this would not be possible without our team of experts working in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and California. The oil and gas industry could be so much more dangerous, but with crews like ours, negative statistics are quickly becoming a thing of the past.
