Summary

Description MARYSVILLE, Calif. – Stirring paddles on a big rig crane lift out of a slurry wall mix at the Marysville Ring Levee project in Marysville, Calif., July 13. The Corps is using a deep soil mixing process, which combines clay bentonite and cement with existing soil to create a thick, solid surface that won’t allow water to leak through or beneath the levee, to upgrade a 4,000-foot section of the levee as part of the project’s first phase. The yellow and pink flags on the levee are laid out to precisely identify the exact location for insertion of the augers. This ensures a continuous and more homogenous wall. Once complete, the slurry wall will be three-feet wide by 110-120 feet deep, and located in the center line of the levee. This $10.8 million phase of the project has been funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and is scheduled to be completed in November 2011. (U.S. Army Photo / Michael J. Nevins)
