PROJECT DESCRIPTION FOR MORGANZA TO THE GULF, HUMBLE CANAL GATE SITE PREPARATION AND INITIAL LEVEE The objective of this project is to construct an initial, or preload levee, to prepare the site for the future construction of a floodgate, associated floodwalls, and earthen levees across Humble Canal. The preload levee will provide a good base and working surface for future construction by promoting settlement and strengthening the foundations of the future levee and floodwalls. The preload levee will tie-in to existing flood protection levees. The main project site is approximately 3 miles south of the town of Montegut, LA and 2 miles east of Chauvin, LA in Terrebonne Parish. It is located on Humble Canal approximately 1/3 miles east of the Bayou Terrebonne/Humble Canal intersection (Lat 29 26 08.5, Lon -90 33 44.0). A portion of the project site extends into the Pointe-aux-Chenes State Wildlife Management Area. The preload levee will consist of north and south alignments on each side of the Humble Canal channel. The south alignment will extend from the channel approximately 500 linear feet and tie-in to existing Reach “I-3” Levee. It will have a maximum elevation of +22 ft NAVD88. The north alignment will extend from the channel approximately 1150 linear feet and tie-in to existing Reach “J-2” Levee. It will have a maximum elevation of +24 ft NAVD88. The preload levee will be constructed mostly of clay. Some sand and rock and will also be used. Approximately 145,000 cubic yards of fill will be required. The preload will be constructed over a wick drain foundation that will extend within and drain the upper 45 feet of clay foundation. The borrow material used to construct the preload levee will be hauled in from government-furnished off-site borrow source adjacent to Bayou la Cache, off Aragon Road near Montegut, LA. It is about 5 miles north of the main project site. The main project site is located off Highway 55 (Montegut Road) by way of Exxon Company Road on the south side and an unnamed local access road on the north side.
