Deep South Exp
Rusty Welch reported to the board, the water levels are low right now a lot of the culverts are stuck open since the hurricanes. They need to be cleaned out and debris removed to see if any repairs need to be done.
Rusty Welch reported the parish wants to start cleaning the ditches. The board has an option to let them clean the ditches for them. If the parish does it, the board would need a after the fact permit and the board would be responsible to pay for the permit.
Rusty Welch also reported to the board that WHC is finishing the pipeline from Grand Chenier to Cameron. There are some breaches on the levee with some places taken down to the culverts. This is due to the contractor putting machinery on the levee. A motion was made by Shirley Gray to have the contract company repair the levee with a drainage board representative over seeing the repairs. The motion was seconded by Cecil Clark. All were in favor. The North Protection levee has been damaged also when Venture global ran their pipeline. They fixed it back with a sludgy type material that is not holding. The levee does not have the stability it needs.
Cecil Clark told the board he would talk to Parish Administrator Katie Armentor about what the boards options would be on getting rid of the truck they have. He will report back to the board.
