Morganza to the Gulf- Reach L Levee

MSMM Engineering, LLC is currently engaged in the comprehensive architectural and engineering design of the Reach L Levee, part of the Mississippi River and Tributaries project, spanning from B/L Sta. 289+62.70 to B/L Sta. 50+00 in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. This critical infrastructure initiative, involves the preparation of Right of Entry for Construction Drawings, Design Document Report (DDR), and detailed Plans and Specifications. Our team leverages advanced geotechnical analyses, structural design documentation, and hydraulic engineering to ensure resilience and compliance with the stringent specifications set forth by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Addressing complex engineering challenges, MSMM Engineering employs state-of-the-art design software and methodologies to navigate the intricate demands of levee construction. The project scope includes significant geotechnical explorations to assess soil stability and composition, crucial for the structural integrity of the levee. Our hydraulic engineers meticulously design flood control structures, ensuring they withstand diverse weather conditions and environmental impacts. The deliverables encompass a robust Design Quality Control Plan, comprehensive construction cost estimates, and an all-encompassing Design Documentation Report, ensuring all phases of the project meet the highest standards of engineering excellence and operational functionality. Through this project, MSMM Engineering not only enhances local infrastructure but also fortifies community safety against future environmental challenges.

Ascension Parish Waterline Replacement

MSMM Engineering is currently engaged in a comprehensive civil engineering project aimed at replacing 43,200 linear feet (8.2 miles) of waterline infrastructure in Ascension Parish, Louisiana. This project involves a meticulous design and engineering process for the installation of new waterlines ranging from 3” to 8” in diameter, incorporating modern valves and strategic tie-ins to existing systems. The scope also includes the replacement of fire hydrants, water service connections, and the rehabilitation of associated roadways impacted by construction activities. Our approach utilizes advanced surveying techniques to ensure precision and efficiency. Initial phases involve detailed topographic surveys and geotechnical borings to assess subsurface conditions, which are critical for designing a resilient water distribution system. MSMM Engineering employs state-of-the-art hydraulic modeling to optimize the water network, enhancing reliability and performance. This model is instrumental in identifying the most effective placements for pipelines and other infrastructure, taking into account future growth and potential environmental impact. Throughout the project, MSMM Engineering adheres to rigorous safety and quality standards, ensuring that all engineering solutions not only meet but exceed client and regulatory requirements. Our team's expertise in navigating complex permit processes and coordinating with multiple governmental agencies underscores our commitment to delivering a project that benefits the community and sets benchmarks in civil engineering excellence. The Ascension Parish Waterline Replacement Project not only demonstrates MSMM Engineering’s technical proficiency but also our dedication to sustainable and innovative infrastructure development.

Jefferson Parish Sewer Infiltration and Inflow Management (GIS)

MSMM principals conducted field survey of sewer manholes and pump stations utilizing GPS equipment (GPS System 500) and SKI-Pro software (both from Leica Geosystems), data entry into database and management of database (MS Access) to create and maintain Jefferson Parish’s intricate wastewater collection system network in ArcGIS software, mapping of the system’s features, followed by hydraulic modeling (InfoWorks) to identify problem areas under various storm conditions graphically within a GIS mapping environment, and recommend capacity and rehabilitation improvements to minimize rainfall derived infiltration and inflow (I&I) and related sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs). Detailed field investigation of nearly 6,000 manholes and 250 plus pump stations were conducted. Many rehabilitation projects have been identified costing upwards of $500 million, along with identifying many areas that will require sewer system evaluation surveys (SSES) to further pinpoint problem locations and causes. A total of twenty SSO areas were chosen for evaluation as part of this project. The total estimated cost of all recommended improvements as a result of model evaluation of 20 SSO areas located on the East Bank of Jefferson Parish was $21,858,424. Currently the hydraulic model is being updated to reflect recent construction projects and identify/rank the remaining areas in terms of need for action to resolve current issues.
