Construction On Last Section Of Lawrenceburg’s Eight-Year Flood Control Project Is Underway

Emergency Management Director Joe Baxter said Thursday that crews are working on the last leg of an eight-year flood control project undertaken by the City of Lawrenceburg.

“We started back in 2007 with the First Street crossing at Pulaski Street, with box culverts,” Baxter explained to members of the Lawrenceburg Board of Mayor and Council. “We’ve gone about two miles and we’re down to the last two hundred feet of concrete channel pouring…Two miles, eleven street crossings, I don’t know how many yards of concrete there’ve been, but it’s coming down to the end.”

“Unfortunately,” Baxter said, “We’ve run into a very large rock ledge. We’re trying to figure out a way to take care of that. It’s just too big and tough for our equipment to break up, so we’re working on that…We’re trying some blast-less demolition stuff.” Baxter said that they have tried drilling holes and filling them with a compound that is designed to expand. “It’s supposed to expand up to 18,000 psi within twenty-four to forty-eight hours. I checked it yesterday and it hadn’t cracked it yet. I think we’re going to have to drill some more holes.”

Baxter said that after the remaining concrete has been poured, there will still be work to do. “We’ll have quite a bit of grass work to do to get grass growing on the banks, but it’s starting to shape up. I’m hoping we’ll see that this summer and have the grass growing in the fall. Then we can move on to the next project.”

Baxter also informed council members, “We’re working on some communications projects. We’ve mounted a little tower on city hall. We’ll be getting communications here at the EOC (Emergency Operations Center) pretty soon. We’ve got a new repeater station that we’re working on getting up that will allow some inter-communications between different agencies, too.”

“Channel 5 has requested to put their weather cam on our roof,” he concluded, “and we’ll have free access to all their weather data here. It’ll say ‘Lawrenceburg EMA’ on that. We’re excited about that.”
