Executive Summary

SECTION I INTRODUCTION

In February of 1985, the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers officially decided to abandon the proposed Barrier Plan for hurricane protection in favor of the High Level Plan for hurricane protection to Lake Pontchartrain and vicinity. With this change in mind, the Orleans Levee Board, under its own initiative, implemented an interim flood protection plan which would be consistent with the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers plan.

In April 1986, a general design memorandum was prepared for this flood protection (protection for a 300 year storm plus two feet of free board with the Corps' current geotechnical design standards) which indicated a cost of 44 million dollars. At the time, the available budget for London Avenue Canal was considerably less than this amount. Therefore, the Board decided to upgrade tEen eXistm-g-sysTem-for inteririillood- protection tc,-a:lever Witrun-tlie'-budgetary limits. Also, with_ th~!20!ps =S1and;g'.~ "bei~_~ stringent, the Boa . ed to f?llo~Jh~ SCE's state of the art geotechnical critena an,

dards for -structural desi . .

As a result, this flood protection system was designed for a 100 year storm water elevation plus two feet of freeboard and with geotechnical standards established for this project. The-hydraulic curves and design were prepared by-­the C.O.E. using their stage water elevations for different storms and pump discharge capacities derived from Sewerage and Water BOard's pump curves.

_ .... to upgrade the preseritlevel-of11o()~d--protec:t1on~ the mos't cost effective--'~-~---'-':::':~ method of construction is to construct earthen levees where adequate right-of-way is available. However, within the project limits of the London Avenue Canal most of the present levee and floodwall system is located immediately adjacent to developed residential property and no additional right-of-way is available for raising earthen levees without relocating residences. Therefore, most of the proposed flood protection improvements within this project will consist of providing cantilever steel sheet pile I-wall floodwalls constructed in the existing earthen levees adjacent to the existing sheet piling.

The recommended plan also includes approximately 7,300 linear feet of levee improvements consisting of raising the existing earthen levee to the new flood protection elevation with no floodwall construction. These earthen levees are all located from Robert E. Lee Boulevard to Lake Pontchartrain on

the west levee and from Leon C. Simon Boulevard to the Lake on the east levee.

In addition to raising earthen levees and constructing new floodwalls four roadway bridge crossings will be modified and floodgates will be placed at a railroad and two roadway bridge approaches to maintain continuity to the levee system. The floodwalls of the Drainage Pumping Stations No.3 and No.4 will also be raised.

Construction Phasing

The sequencing of the flood protection improvements included in the recommended plan will be established on a priority basis in three phases as shown on Plate I-I. The first phase (Phase 1) is to increase the level of flood protection offered at the seven bridge crossings as well as raising the earthen levees, the flood walls north of Filmore Avenue (including DPS No.4), 300 feet of floodwalls north of Mirabeau Avenue, east side, and floodwalls between Sere Street and 1,600 feet north of Sere Street, at a cost of 11.9 million dollars (Table 1-1). At the present time, funds in the amount of 12 million

-- -dollarsareavailable-for--these-interimimprovements~--- ------------

Since the 300 feet of existing floodwalls north of Mirabeau Avenue on the east side consists of a weak pile section and is good for only a 10 year storm, the improvement of this portion is included in the first phase. The 1,600 feet reach north of Sere Street is proposed to be reconstructed in Phase I for economic reasons. About 1,100 feet of existing sheet piles taken from south of Robert--E.LeeBoulevard can be used for this reach._____ ___ -

The level of protection of the existing system within the Phase IT construction site is only good for a 25 year storm with no free board. Therefore, it is recommended that the construction of the second phase start immediately after completion of Phase 1.

Upon completion of the second phase of construction, interim flood protection will be provided to the entire area adjacent to the London Avenue Canal for a 100 year storm tide with a still water level of 10.3 National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGVD) in Lake Pontchartrain, and 13.0 NGVD at Drainage Pumping Station No. 3 plus 2 feet of freeboard.

Burk and Associates, Inc. 8407 Page 1-2

London Avenue Canal

The third phase (phase ill) is to eventually construct concrete caps over the steel sheet pile I-walls to complete the project. The estimated cost for Phase ill improvements is 9.2 million dollars as summarized in· Table 1-3. The third phase is not intended to be constructed until some future time when additional funds are available, to improve the aesthetics of the floodwalls.

The Corps of Engineers Plan

The Corps of Engineers is presently studying an alternative plan for hurricane flood protection which consists of constructing a floodgate closure structure across the London A venue Canal in the vicinity of Lake Pontchartrain. This proposed structure would consist of a series of vertically pinned steel floodgates designed to be self closing during hurricane tide conditions. Since London Avenue Canal is an outfall drainage canal for two major storm drainage pumping stations operated by the New Orleans Sewerage and Water Board, it is necessary to maintain an outfall channel for discharge from these pumping stations during hurricane conditions. For this reason, the Corps proposes to use a self actuated floodgate closure. As the drainage pumping stations pu.!!1PJh~ir_gisch~!ge_ i.ntothe !-Q.ndon Avenu~c::cgt_ah_ it is lil<ely_ t1!~t the water level on the protected side of the floodgate structure would exceed the still water level in Lake Pontchartrain. As this occurs the floodgates are designed to automatically open and allow the excess water in the canal to discharge into Lake Pontchartrain. The Corps' design still water level in Lake Pontchartrain is elevation 11.5 NGVD which is a 300 year stage elevation.

Their hydraulic profiles for London Avenue Canal indicate that water surface elevations of a 300-year storm-is approximately-a foot higher than those of-a-··-~·--100-year storm.

Cost estimates provided within this study are presented as estimated construction cost for structures and estimated total cost for phases. The construction cost includes only the cost of installation of the structures and the total cost is the summation of construction cost and contingencies, engineering and other related costs as described below.

Contingencies used in this study are estimated at 15% of the estimated construction cost and include costs for mobilization, bonds, insurance and other potential added construction costs which could evolve when more specific design details are developed. The design fees are estimated at approximately 5.75% of the estimated construction cost including contingencies. Other costs are surveys, 1%, design memorandum, 0.5%, geotechnical investigations, 1 %, testing laboratory, 1 %, resident inspection, 2.5% of the estimated construction cost including contingencies.

SECTION II HYDRAULICS

General

The hydraulic criteria and data used for evaluation· and analysis of the existing floodwalls and levees and design of the proposed structures were to be compatible with the Corps' criteria used in their projects. Therefore, the Corps was requested to provide a set of hydraulic profiles for London Avenue Canal, given discharge flows from the pumping stations for several frequencies. The Sewerage and Water Board's pump curves were used to determine the discharge flows.

Procedures and Data

. The following computations and tasks were performed to provide necessary data for COE's use in their computations and preparation of hydraulic data:

1. Stage-Frequency curves for Lake Pontchartrain as prepared by the Corps (COE's Plates A-17 and A-1S, November 1984) were used to determine the Lake water stage elevations for occurrence probabilities of 5-, 10-, 15-, 25-, 50-, 100-, 200- and 300- year. These curves (copies of COE's Plate A-17 and Plate A-1S) are shown on Plate 11-1 and the results are tabulated on Plate 11-2.

2.

The total capacity of the Pump Stations were calculated for several discharge water elevations using the intake water elevations and Pump Characteristic Curves described above. The results are shown by two curves on Plate 11-4.

3. The results of the previous backwater profile computer runs were studied and analyzed to approximate backwater profiles for several stages. The approximated profiles were necessary to estimate the differential heads at the pump stations. These profiles were created by establishing relation­ships between the losses in canal and pump stations capacity (discharge) and by interpolating all losses. See Backwater Profile 1 on Plate 11-3.

Burk and Associates, Inc. 8407 Page D-l

London Avenue Canal

4. Discharge basin water elevations at pump station were read for each profile in "Backwater Profile 1" and corresponding total pump station capacities were determined from curves shown on Plate II-4. These values were plotted against the lake water elevations taken from the profiles mentioned above. See "Lake Elev. - Pump Station Capacity Curves" on Plate II-4.

5. The "Lake Elev. - Pump Station Capacity Curves" were used to determine the discharge values for each Lake stage as tabulated on Plate ll-4. These figures were given to the Corps.

6. The approximated profiles for the Lake Stages were calculated and plotted ("Backwater Profile 2", Plate ll-3) for comparison with the project's profile as would be prepared by the Corps to determine the accuracy of the approximation.

7. The project's backwater profiles were prepared by the Corps using the furnished data. The elevations are tabulated on Plate ll-5 and the profiles

-··are·shown-on-Plate ll-6. _. ----.--.--.-- .-

Results and Conclusions

C.O.E.'s Plate A-17 shows the stage-frequency curve for south shore of Lake Pontchartrain as developed by the Corps using recorded data and a probability formula. This curve is taken as the empirical curve for this project and the curve on their Plate A-IS.as the theoretical. Comparing these two-curves indicates minor differences in elevations for different frequencies. This comparison is shown in the table "Frequency-Stage Elevations" on Plate ll-2.

Astuay-orPi;t~'n~5-Jt~~~~t:ll~t:~dm~r~~~~6e~eeneieva.ti~~;-~f:;;golty~~~~; '-'-.-----~.~ .. -" - ' .. frequency back water profile (11.5-14.0) and those of a 100 year (10.3-13.0) varies from 1.0 to 1.2 feet. This indicates that the project's hydraulic criteria, providing a flood protection for a 100 year storm plus two feet of freeboard, will accommodate a 300 year storm plus one foot of freeboard.

The hydraulic profiles approximated for estimating pump stations discharge were compared with the project's profiles as developed by the Corps. The differences between upstream elevations of the curves were very small which indicated that the estimated discharge values were valid and accurate.

General

SECTIONm EXISTING CONDmONS

In addition to proposing an adequate flood protection plan, the scope of this GDM includes analysis and evaluation of the existing floodwalls and levees based on the Corps of Engineers' recorded Lake water stage elevations and hydraulic criteria. A geotechnical study was also performed for this analysis. The purpose of this evaluation was to determine the levels of protections the existing system provides.

Procedures

The Corps of Engineers' water elevations and other data, as described in Section II, were utilized for all hydraulic criteria of this project.

-To-e:v-aluate-the .existing-conditions-the available-drawings,field-surv:eyand----­visual inspection were used in combination to determine the existing sheet piling length, shape, cantilever, etc. and to prepare a listing for several reaches. The shape and type of piles or levees determined the breakdown of the reaches. See Plates ill-I and m-2. These reaches were further subdivided by the geotechnical engineers for their analyses.

Slope !3tability analyses were perfo!'m~<ii3.I\d factors ol_~ClfeJy, moments and deflections were calculated for several water levels for each reach by Eustis Engineering. These geotechnical and structural data showed the still water

__ c ~~~~~~~~:-~'_ -- ~~~~:~::~:~~~~~:dt~~~lri!~~M:~~l--- -~ -~~?_~~ -11-6, Section II, the levels of protection (protection against storm frequencies) were determined. Table ill-l and Plate m-4 show the result of this study.

Existing Levees and Floodwalls

The existing levees along the London Avenue Canal consist mainly of earthen levees with steel sheet pile I walls. Most of these sheet piles have concrete caps to increase the floodwall height and to protect the steel sheet piling from the weather elements.

Burk and Associates, Inc. 8407 Page llI-l

London Avenue Canal

The present flood protection levees and floodwalls along this canal vary between elevation 8.5 NGVD and 12.5 NGVD. All of the present flood protection systems are lower in elevation than the flood protection proposed in this GDM.

The sheet piles are made of standard, special and non-standard sections in various sizes and lengths and the levees have an 8 foot crown and side slopes varying from 5:1 to 3:1. Plates m-2 and m-4 show the existing features and conditions.

Drainage Pumping Stations

The New Orleans Sewerage and Water Board's Drainage Pumping Station No.3 is located on North Broad Avenue at the beginning of the London Avenue Canal (Station 0+00). It is a masonry structure with the existing floodwalls tying into the walls of the building. The horizontal discharge tubes (from the pumps inside the building) extend directly out of the brick wall on the north side of the station and are turned downward into the canal. There also exists a series of floodgates which allow the pumping station to

-iliver-t-someofthestorm-waterto theF1orida-Avenue-€anal~-Present-level-of­flood protection provided by the floodwalls at Drainage Pumping Station No. 3 is elevation 12.5 NGVD. (see Plates IV-14 and IV-IS in Section IV).

Drainage Pumping Station No. 4 is located at the intersection of Prentiss Avenue and the east levee of the London Avenue Canal (Station 101+00). The pump structure presently houses two centrifugal pumps (see Plates IV-16 and-IV-17 in Section IV). In-addition to the two centrifugal pumps three-­horizontal pumps are located north of the centrifugal pump structure. Present floodwalls ac~oss this outdoor portion of the station consists of

~§~e:~~~~_":_-m- --- -----c'fo=~it~~;~I~I:~i~~;:~~~~:~s~h:~~?!-:----canal that drains the area west of the canal. The water is siphoned across the canal into the pump sump of the station and then pumped into the canal with its three horizontal pumps and two centrifugal pumps. Present level of flood protection offered by the floodwalls at Drainage Pumping Station No.4 is elevation 10.73 NGVD.

Bridges

There are nine bridges crossing the London Avenue Canal within the project limits. Two of these crossings (1-610 twin bridges) are above the required elevation and the other seven bridges are below. The overtopping elevations of these seven bridges vary between elevation 4.19 NGVD and 10.03 NGVD,

Results of Evaluation

As shown on Table ill-I and Plate ill-4, the existing system and soil conditions with a factor of safety of 1.5 will accommodate still water elevations at or above a 25-year storm (with no freeboard) except for Reaches Ex-VIIT-R (good for a-10-year storm) and Ex-X-R (good for a 15-yearstorm)--which have weak pile sections. The allowable bending stress for sheet pile sections is assumed to be 18 ksi.

Along most of the present . levee system the existing property lines of the . adjoining property are located at the toe of the existing levee. Most of these adjoining properties are rea~ yards of residential property and frequently garages or tool sheds are constructed adjacent to the property line.

SECTION IV PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS

The existing floodwalls, levees and crossings, as discussed in Section II, provide a flood protection for 25 years storm and less without freeboard. The proposed system, when completed, will protect against a flood with elevations 12.3 NGVD at the Lake and 15.0 NGVD at the upstream end, DPS No.3. This is 4.3 to 5.0 feet above a 25 year storm and is established as a 100 year storm plus 2 feet of freeboard. Due to limited available funds, these improvements are proposed to be made in three phases.

Phase I.

Upgrading the crossings at Southern Railrc;>ad, Benefit Street, Gentilly Boulevard, Mirabeau Avenue, Filmore Avenue, Robert

______ E.Lee BouleV'ard_and~R-C.Simon_Bouleyarrl.___ __ ~ ___ ~ _____ _

Raising the earthen levees from Robert E .. Lee Boulevard on the west and Leon C. Simon Boulevard on the east to Lake Pontchartrain.

Construction of new I-walls from Filmore Avenue to the earthen levees from Mirabeau Avenue to 300 feet north of Mi!~b~!lJ! Avenue,eC}st side, and from Sere Sn-~tt~JpOO feet north of Sere Street.

Raising _ the floodwalls of DPS No.4.

PhaSen:---- --­

Construction of I-walls from 1600 feet north of Sere Street to Filmore Avenue and from DPS No.3 to Sere Street.

Raising the floodwalls of DPS No.3.

Phase ill.

Installation of concrete cap over the new sheet piles and removal of the old sheet piles.

Burk and Associates, Inc. 8407 Page JV-l

--------.. ~__,__-----____c_---

London Avenue Canal

The total cost of Phase I is estimated at 11.6 million dollars which is within the available budget and Phase II is estimated to cost 12.6 million dollars. Since the construction of Phase III will not upgrade the overall flood protection, it is recommended to be performed when additional fund becomes available.

The proposed improvements are shown and summarized in Plates IV-I, IV-2, IV-3 and IV-4.

Earthen Levees

The levees adjacent to the London Avenue Canal require upgrading to conform to the design water elevations obtained from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which is required by Orleans Levee Board for this project. This design calls for a 100 year flood still water -surface elevation in the canal at Lake Pontchartrain of 10.3 NGVD. The design criteria also requires a two foot freeboard in the canal, raising the required levee elevation to 12.3 NGVD at the Lake. Along the perimeter of the Lake, the Corps of Engineers is raising the levees to elevation 17.5 NGVD east of the London Ave. Canal and lS.0

-NGVD west ofthe-eanal.--Theseele-vations-include. waveaction-and-three...feet of freeboard. The project design criteria allows two feet of freeboard for levee design within the confines of the canal. There will be an area of transition of the levee from elevation 12.5+ to 17.5, west levee and lS.0, east levee near the Lake to tie into the lakefront levee system. These transitions are about 750' long each.

Ihel<?fi).tion of th~sgJ~yees, as established by the_geotechnical invesggCition performed by Eustis Engineers, requires the centerline of the upgraded levee to be setback from th~ existing.

Steel Sheet Pile I-Walls

Due to right of way restriction, none of the existing sheet piles can be replaced with only earthen levees. The proposed system calls for higher and stronger sheet pile I-walls than the existing with the same concept, steel sheet piles in low levees. Some of these levees are proposed to be improved (graded or raised) within the existing right of way. The pile sections were selected for different locations based on soil and loading conditions. Plates IV-I, IV-2, IV-3 and IV-4 show the breakdown and summary of the proposed floodwalls. See Plate IV -S for typical sections of sheet piles in levees.

Floodproofing of Crossings

Except 1-610 twin bridges, all crossings within the project site have an overtopping elevation lower than the design flood and will be floodproofed as part of this project. The Leon C. Simon Bridge has the highest top elevation, 10.03 NGVD, and will be improved last. However, all bridges are proposed to be floodproofed in Phase I. Table IV-I summarizes openings and improvement of the bridges and Plate IV -9 shows the existing typical sections. Alternate studies were made to determine the most economical and feasible concept for each crossing's improvement. For typical details and sections of these alternates (flood gate, bridge modification and new bridge) see Plates IV-I0 through IV-13. Each bridge is discussed individually, as follows:

Southern Railroad Bridge

The Southern Railroad Company owns two sets of tracks which cross the London Avenue Canal between Drainage Pumping Station No.3 and Benefit Street at approximately station 2+00. The structure is approximately 160 feet long and 28 feet wide. The bridge consists of a sub-structure composed of

The superstructure consists of a solid concrete deck supporting the creosoted cross ties and two sets of rails. The concrete deck has weep holes and open joints at every bent. For a typical section of the existing bridge, see Plate IV-9.

The structure,including the rails, has a top elevation of approximately 9.33 NGVD and a bottom ~ chord elevation of 6.3 ~ NGVD. The top elevation is below the required fiooclwarr elevationof15.0 NGVD at this location. The bridge cannot be easily modified without a major cost increase to provide a

two alternates for providing necessary flood protection were considered- a new bridge and floodgates.

Constructing a new bridge to provide vertical clearance above the design high water level of 13.0 NGVD would be very costly (estimated over 5 million dollars) and would put the tracks out of service for a long time. Therefore, this GDM proposes constructing steel swing gates at both bridge approaches where the railroad crosses the floodwalls. PZ-22 steel sheetpiles driven 15 feet below the base of the structure will be provided for seepage protection at each gate monolith. The opening size of the floodgates will be 28'-10" wide by 5'-9" high and will cost approximately $265,000 for both gates. For details see Plate IV-IO.

London Avenue Canal

Benefit Street Bridge

This two lane bridge is located on Benefit Street at London Avenue Canal at approximately Station 6+60. The bridge is approximately 121 feet long and 27 feet wide and was built in 1960. It consists of a substructure composed of a concrete cap supported by four timber piles per bent and a superstructure composed of a concrete deck supported by eleven steel girders per span. For a typical section of the existing structure, see Plate IV-9.

The lowest overtopping elevation of the bridge is 8.37 NGVD at the existing roadway deck. The deck elevation is below the required floodwall elevation of 14.7 NGVD. Three alternates for providing necessary flood protection were studied and described as follows:

Alternate 1: Modify Existing Bridge. This alternate considers modifying the existing bridge by the installation of a new deck and parapet wall. The modifications include removal of the existing deck; installing new steel girders along the exterior faces of the existing bridge; installing tension connections to the steel girders; installing a new concrete watertight deck and parapetwalli--and-pr-ovidingseepagecutoff--at-each bridge-abutment-with 15'--- ---­long PZ-22 steel sheet piles. The estimated construction cost for this alternate is $309,000.

Alternate 2: New Bridge. This solution considers the construction of a new bridge above the top of the new floodwalls. Incorporated into the cost of this solution is the demolition of the existing structure, the cost of the new bridge itselfand the cost to raise the roadways, so that the bottom of the bridge deck elevation will be maintained above the floodwater elevation of 12.7 NGVD. The estimated construction cost for this alternate is $600,000.

The opening size of the roller gate will be 31'-0" wide and 7'-0" high. PZ-22 steel sheetpiles driven 15 feet below the base of the structure will be provided for seepage protection at each gate monolith. The estimated construction cost for this alternate is $275,000 for two gates.

Benefit Street handles only a low volume local traffic and is in close proximity to the Gentilly Boulevard Bridge which has been recommended for modification and can be used as an access to Benefit Street when closed. For these reasons and the fact that bottom roller flood gates are less expensive than modifying or rebuilding the entire bridge, the recommendation is to construct bottom roller flood gates as proposed in Alternate 3 at the estimated construction cost of $275,000. For gate details see Plate IV-13.

London Avenue Canal

Gentilly Boulevard Bridge

This bridge is located on Genti1ly Boulevard and London Avenue Canal at approximately station 14+00. It is approximately 108 feet long and 84 feet wide, and was built in 1934 and expanded in 1950. The structure carries six lanes - three lanes in each direction. The bridge consists of a substructure composed of concrete footings supported by timber piles, concrete columns and concrete caps. The superstructure consists of a concrete slab span deck, with steel girders encased in the slab, supported by steel channels at the column bents. For a typical section of the existing bridge, see Plate IV-9.

The lowest elevation of the bridge is 4.19 NGVD at top of slab and 7.53 NGVD at top of the parapet wall. The parapet wall elevation is below the required flood wall elevation of 14.5 NGVD. After evaluating the uplift forces to be resisted by the existing bridge foundation,· it was determined this structure cannot safely resist the maximum uplift force which could develop during high water level to the top of floodwall elevation. The timber piles are capable of developing the tension capacity needed, however, the embedment into the existing concrete pile footings is not adequate to develop the

-~-~-----~- -- necessar-y-tension-forces. -- There-is -no-pr-aGtiGal-way-ofupgr-ading-the-pile- to footing connection for this bridge since the bottom of footing elevation is several feet below the bottom of the concrete slope paving in the bottom of the canal. Therefore, two alternates for providing the necessary flood protection are suggested - a new high level bridge to clear the flood elevation of 12.5 NGVD at an estimated construction cost of $1,956,000 and a low level bridge with parapet walls at $500,000. Being more economical, the latter is proposed.

This alternate proposes the construction of a new bridge,-keeping the existing

abandoned); installing precast prestressed concrete pile bents; installing a new concrete watertight deck and parapet walls; and providing new seepage protection at bridge abutments using PZ-22 steel sheetpiles driven 15 feet below the base of the structure .. For bridge modification details see Plate IV-ll.

Gentilly Boulevard is a major arterial roadway serving this area. During the approach of a hurricane this roadway functions as a primary hurricane evacuation route for residents in this area. For this reason it is necessary to keep this roadway open to traffic during the approach of a major storm. Therefore, flood gates are not considered a feasible alternate.

London Avenue Omal

Mirabeau Avenue Bridge

This bridge is located on Mirabeau Avenue at London Avenue Canal at station 70+00. The bridge is approximately 125 feet long and approximately 70.4 feet wide, and was built in 1960. The structure carries four travel lanes -two lanes in each direction. The bridge consists of a substructure composed of a concrete cap supported by twelve steel piles per bent and a superstructure composed of a concrete deck supported by twelve steel girders (see Plate IV-9. Adjacent to the bridge is a timber pedestrian bridge.

The lowest elevation of the bridge is 7.70 NGVD at the top of the slab and 9.27 NGVD at the top of the parapet wall. The parapet wall elevation is below the required floodwall elevation of 13.9 NGVD. Three alternates for providing necessary flood protection are suggested and described as follows:

The pre1imfuary design of the proposed new bridge would increase the bridge length to 700 feet. The proposed bridge is a concrete slab span structure. The estimated construction cost for this alternate is $1,849,000.

Alternate 3: Bottom Roller Flood Gates. This alternate suggests the installation of bottom roller flood gates at both bridge approaches. The opening size of the roller gate will be 75 feet wide and 7 feet 3 inches high. The estimated construction cost for this alternate is $408,000.

It is not a practical solution to close the bridge during the flood period as suggested in Alternate 3. In addition, the cost differential between Alternate 3 and Alternate 1 is relatively small. The cost of Alternate 2 is substantially more than Alternate 1. Therefore, Alternate 1, bridge modification at a cost of

Alternate 3: Bottom Roller Flood Gates. This solution proposes, the installation of bottom r~ller flood gates at both, bridge approaches. 1Jte opening size of each roller gate will be 40'-0" wide and 9'-6" high. The estimated construction cost for this alternate is $325,000 .

. Robert E. Lee Boulevard is an arterial roadway serving this area but is in close proximity to the Leon C. Simon Blvd. bridge which has been recommended for modification and can be used instead of this crossing during a flood. For these reasons and the fact that bottom roller flood gates are less expensive than floodproofing or rebuilding the entire bridge, the recommendation is to construct the bottom roller flood gates (estimated cost $325,000) as proposed in Alternate 3. For gate details see Plate IV-13.

Leon C. Simon Boulevard Bridge

This bridge is located on Leon C. Simon Boulevard' at London A venue Canal at approximately station 127+50. The bridge is approximately 184 feet long and 71 feet wide, and it was built in 1967. The structure carries four travel

For a typical section of the existing bridge, see Plate IV-9.

The lowest elevation of the bridge is 6.52 NGVD at the top of the slab and 10.03 _ NGVD at the top of the parapet wall. The parapet wall elevation is below the required flood wall elevation of 12.6 NGVD. Three alternates for providing necessary-flood protection are suggested and described. -as1611ows:

Additionally new seepage protection at bridge abutments using PZ-22 steel sheetpiles driven 15 feet below the base of the structure will be provided. This existing bridge has a watertight deck and therefore, for interim protection, replacement of the existing deck is not necessary. The estimated construction cost for this alternate is $176,000.

Alternate 2: New Bridge. This solution proposes the construction of a new high level bridge. Incorporated into the cost of this solution is the demolition of the existing structure, the cost of the new bridge itself and the cost to raise the roadways, so that the bottom of the bridge deck elevation will be maintained above the floodwater elevation of 10.6 NGVD.

Burk and Associates, Inc. 8407 Page IV-9

London Avenue Canal

The preliminary design of the proposed new bridge would increase the bridge length to 700 feet. The proposed bridge is a concrete slab span structure. The estimated coristruction cost of this alternate is $1,907,000.

Alternate 3: Bottom Rolle! Flood Gates. This solution suggests the installation of bottom roller flood gates at both bridge approaches. The opening size of each roller gate will be 75 feet wide and 8 feet 6 inches high. The estimated construction cost for this alternate is $424,000.

For this crossing, the obvious choice is the modification of existing bridge with estimated cost of $176,000 which is the most economical and the roadway will be open to traffic during a flood. This bridge will also be used for Robert E. Lee Boulevard traffic. See Plate IV-II for bridge modification details.

Drainage Pumping Stations

1. New Orleans Sewerage and Water Board Drainage Pumping Station No.3 (Station 0+00). This pumping station is located just north of the infersectlOn or-N.-Broad- Avenueand Lonnon-Avenue ana- marK-g--Ule beginning of the London Avenue Canal. Since the station is situated across the south end of the canal, the current level of flood protection is provided by the structure of the station itself. The walls of the discharge basin are then connected with the earthen levee and floodwall system· of the canal on the east and west sides to complete the continuity of flood protection.

Proposed improvements to the existing-level of flood protection at Pump Station No.3 involves upgrading of the existing floodwall and levee system. On the _west side, enough space is available to raise the elevation of the

-portion- oithe existing concrete discharge--basin- wall be raised also. On the east side, the entire length of the existing discharge basin wall, from the pumping station to the junction with the proposed swing gate at the railroad crossing,· will be raised to the required elevation of 15.0 NGVD. This portion of new work includes proposed replacement of an existing flow diversion flood gate which permits two pumps within the station to pump either directly to Lake Pontchartrain or to divert discharge to N.O.S.&W.B. Pump Station No.5. Since major modifications to the pump station structure are not economically feasible at this time, improved flood protection across the front of the station will be provided by constructing a new concrete wall immediately in front of the existing structure. This new wall will extend laterally between the discharge basin walls on either side and will be supported vertically by the existing foundation slab. Present backflow preventers on each horizontal pump within DPS No. 3 will remain intact for

London Avenue Canal

interim flood protection. The estimated construction cost for improvements at DPS No.3 is $111,000.

Plates 1V-14 and 1V-15 present pictorially the proposed improvements at this pumping station.

2. New Orleans Sewerage and Water Board Pumping Station No. 4 (Station 101+00). This pumping station is located on the east bank of London Avenue Canal at Prentiss Avenue. Since the station is situated parallel with the flow of the canal, the existing flood protection is provided by the earthen levee and floodwall system of the canal being linked with the foundation and building structure of the station.

_ Consistent with the existing scheme, improvements to the levee and floodwall system of the canal will extend completely to the structural limits of pumping station. Therefore, proposed upgrading of flood protection for the station will be confined to modifications of the structure only. The level of flood protection for the original pumping station was upgraded in 1973 and

_.-proposed_new_jmprovements_are~pIedicated_upon_the-s¥stemused. _. Thesc-e~~­previous interim modifications to the pump station are proposed to be replaced with new interim components constructed to the higher elevation of 13.4 NGVD as required, and founded upon the original structure of the station. In addition, the centrifugal pump discharge bay on the south end of the structure is to receive a new concrete wall facing against the existing building. This wall is to extend laterally between the walls of the discharge basin and vertically from the top of the existing discharge tubes up to the required elevationoJ 13.4 NGVI>:The present backflow preveiiters on each---­horizontal and centrifugal pump within DPS No. 4 shC1l1 remain intact for interi~"~?<>"~p'r<?~~"~tip~·_o

Plates IV-16 and IV-17 present pictorially the proposed improvements to Pump Station No.4.

Right of Way Considerations

The recommended plan of improvements to the London Avenue Canal floodwalls does not require any significant right-of-way acquisitions. Under the recommended plan, only temporary construction access servitudes will be necessary during the construction phase of this project. Several alternate plans were looked at which involved anywhere from a minor right-of-way acquisition to massive acquisitions and relocations. In order to be able to

Burk and Associates, Inc. 8407 Page IV-ll

-------:-::--=-------------

London Avenue Canal

expedite the implementation of the interim floodwalls and levees, it was a high priority to develop the levee sections to remain with the existing right-of-way.' . .

Between Leon C. Simon Boulevard and Lake Pontchartrain, an earthen levee can safely be constructed to the required elevation of 12.5 + on both the east and west levee within existing right-of-way. The only displacements are several shrubs and less than eight trees within this right-of-way. On the east levee, the transition of earthen levee to elevation 17.5 NGVD will require some right-of-way acquisition from the University of New Orleans. The 5 year plan of improvements of UNO includes the construction of a new campus perimeter roadway within the area where this levee would be located. However, the landside berm for the new levee could be used for this proposed roadway and therefore both UNO and the Orleans Levee Board could possibly work together to accomplish all objectives.

Utility Relocations

--=--=-~~--~pip-e line. Besides water mains;-sewer-force mru.n.sand gas transmission. ----------trunklines crossing this floodwall, the Sewerage & Water Board's prfmary electric power transmission cable will require relocation at certain areas. This power cable provides the N.O.S.&W.B. electric power to D.P.S. No.3 and No. 4 and must be maintained operable at all times to allow the drainage pump stations to operate. Therefore, before construction involving floodwalls which support the present transmission cable proceed, a relocated power cable must be installed.

Another major utility line which may be affected is the 10 foot diameter siphon pipe line from Prentiss Ave. west of London Avenue Canal to D.P.S. No.4 on the east side of the canal. Constructing the new levee will have to be coordinated closely with New Orleans Sewerage and Water Board so the siphon tube can be disconnected while the steel sheet piles are driven. Then

Burk and Associates, Inc. 8407 Page IV-12

London Avenue Canal

the tube must be replaced immediately, keeping the shut down time to a minimum. The construction must al~o take place at a time of. the year when weather conditions will permit. This type of construction will save thousands of dollars by not having to build a new bypass tube. A summary of the existing utilities requiring relocation is shown in Table IV-2.

Construction Priority

The first priority for raising the level of flood protection along London Avenue Canal is to floodproof the existing openings at seven bridges along the canal. These seven bridges listed in their order of stationing are shown in Table IV-1. As seen in this table, the present level of flood protection varies between elevation 4.19 NGVD and elevation 10.03 NGVD. The additional height necessary for required flood protection is as much as 10.31 feet at the Gentilly Boulevard Bridge, making this the top priority item for construction. The other bridges require between 6.33 feet and 2.57 feet of additional height to meet the required flood protection levels necessary under this project .

. ~t~E.tJ1~_bri4K~_~_cty~J:)~n 1l1:~9-!!~ed as discll§~ed aJ:>oyeL the l~y~~~.repr~.sent ___ ~ __ . __ . . the highest priority for required flood protection. Present levee heights vary

between elevation 8.5 and 11.5 NGVD on the earthen levees between Robert E. Lee and Lakeshore Drive, adjacent to the London Avenue Canal. These levees must be as high as elevation 12.6 and transition to elevation 18.0 NGVD in the vicinity of Lake Pontchartrain due to wave runup. Therefore, as much as 6.5 feet is required to be filled· by these levees making them a top priority item.

. ... _--_ .... _--- ........ __ ..... --=-----------.._ .......... _----- . After construction of the levees the sheet piles are to be driven from the

The existing sheet piles from Mirabeau Avenue to 300 feet north of Mirabeau Avenue, on the east side (Reach Ex-vm-R), are weak (MP-112) and good for a 10 year storm. Therefore, this section is proposed to be improved in Phase I.

The improvement of the segment between Sere Street and 1,600 feet north of Sere Street has been included in Phase I of the project to utilize 1,110 feet of existing 1,790 feet PZ-32 sheet piles removed from the east floodwall between DPS No.4 and Robert E. Lee Boulevard. The other 680 feet of these piles are used on the east side of the Canal between Robert E. Lee Boulevard and Leon C. Simon Boulevard.

Phase IT construction is suggested to begin at Filmore Avenue, continue towards DPS No.3 and end by raising the wall and levee at DPS No.3.

Burk and Associates, Inc. 8407 Page IV-13

London Avenue Canal

Phase Ill, installation of concrete cap over new sheet piles, may begin and be completed when additional. funds are available for this phase. However, it is· preferred that capping begin at the north end.
