Levee Remediation

levee remediation

Levee failures due to erosion are pandemic throughout North America, and flooding events due to levee breeches in the central portion of the United States have had a devastating impact in recent history. Lives and livelihoods along our major river systems are impacted on a yearly basis. The cost efficiency, low environmental impact, and occupational safety of our process allows for the strengthening of our country’s weakened levee systems. Using our cut-off wall at the toe of the levee affords erosion resistance at the levee’s most vulnerable area. Using multiple cut-off walls in weakened areas of a levee creates a buttressing effect by increasing rigidity of the entire earthen structure.
