High Water Reports for Sept. 16
- Cajun Paradise and Old Spanish Trail, Boutte. Water is over the road at this intersection. High water from the marsh is coming in underneath a nearby railroad trestle and filling ditches.
- Beaupre and Cottage Drive, Luling. Public Works crews have completed sandbagging to control some overtopping of the spoil levee in this area, which is out of sight of residential homes. The water had been going into the Cousins Canal. The overtopping has been stopped, but the parish continues to keep watch. Public Works found the issue early this morning during routine levee monitoring.
- Hahnville High School, Boutte. The small spoil levee behind Hahnville High School did experience some overtopping yesterday and this morning. Crews have corrected this with sandbags and clay. They continue to monitor the area for additional failures.
- Magnolia Ridge, Boutte. Water here is covering the road at almost 3 feet in places at the southern end of the road. Public Works officials say water levels appear to be static and are expected to begin receding.
- Bayou Des Allemands. Crews continue to monitor this area for any overtopping or trouble with the temporary flood control measures placed here, which include flood control tubes and plastic-wrapped sand.
- Evangeline Road, Montz. Water continues to cover the road. Motorists are asked to be cautious.

Water finally receding

Willowridge - Sandbags available
Levee riding prohibited
Willowridge Update
Water in the Willowridge area is rising and may continue to rise. We expect some possible street flooding due to this, but at this time we don’t anticipate any homes flooding due to the rising water.
The ring levee behind this subdivision has been experiencing seepage since this morning.
A front is now bringing winds out of the southwest, which is preventing quick receding today as had been expected. As water is receding from areas near Hwy. 90, that water is now filling the swamps and marshland behind the subdivisions south of 90 in Luling.
Please check the blog later this afternoon for video of this area.
Water in Ama ditches
We have had reports that the water does have a smell. Wastewater officials have confirmed to EOC that the smell is from the water itself, and NOT from a sewer lift station overflow.
Morning Update 9/14/08
- Water levels have crested and are beginning to recede, but residents should expect high water conditions for at least the next 72 hours.
- There has been some seepage and overtopping of the ring levee behind Luling's Willowridge and Willowdale subdivisions in at least one area. We DO NOT expect this to threaten any homes, but it may begin filling ditches.
- The water is receding over Hwy. 90 near the Davis Diversion. It is now passable and down to one lane.
- Water levels have risen even more in Bayou Des Allemands. Parish workers are still sandbagging to correct at least one breech of temporary flood fight measures on Up the Bayou Road.
- Water is rising in the ditches in Ama.

Hurricane Ike Flooding - Sept. 13
Afternoon update 9/13/08
- While Bayou Gauche Island and other areas outside levee protection have flooded, the levee system surrounding the subdivisions in Bayou Gauche and Des Allemands has kept water out of hundreds of homes. On the island, residents are still sandbagging in an attempt to keep water out of their homes. I would estimate the water is at least a foot and a half deep over most of the island. One resident I talked to said his houseboat had floated and crashed up the bayou, and all the crab traps he set in Lake Salvador are likely destroyed. He is moving to Brookhaven, Miss.
- Public Works crews are actively engaged in a flood fight on Up the Bayou Road in Des Allemands. I watched them replenish and build temporary earthen levees along the bayou. There is some water on the road in low areas, but the levees are protecting the houses very well. On Down the Bayou Road, water was splashing over the bulkhead, but not overtopping it. Lafourche residents across the bayou were loading and throwing sandbags to protect their property.
- There is still no sign of flooding in Willowdale or other parts of Luling. But water has crept up onto Highway 90 past the Davis Diversion near the St. Charles / Jefferson parish line. This afternoon it was still passable, but down to one lane in two areas. It seemed as if the water was rising a bit still, but it should be receding soon. It was quite an impressive sight; with flooding on both sides of the highway.
- Entergy this afternoon says there are about 40 customers without power in St. Charles, in Destrehan, Luling, Norco and Paradis. These outages are due to problems with individual homes, a company spokesperson said.
- Pictures and video of all affected areas are coming soon, including Evangeline Road in Montz and footage of the Bonnet Carre Spillway filled with storm surge from the lake.
Reports from this morning 9/13/08
- Temporary levees of sand and plastic are seeping across the roadway in the 200 - 400 block of Up the Bayou Road in Des Allemands. The water height on the road is about 2 inches. Public Works crews are out this morning sandbagging this area.
- Bayou Gauche Island is entirely underwater. Public Works is also providing more sandbags in this area.
- Water has blocked Hwy. 90 near the Davis Diversion and Jefferson / St. Charles line in at least two separate areas. The highway is down to one lane in these areas. The road is still passable, but vehicles have to drive through high water. However, so far water levels in drainage ditches in the Willowridge / Willowdale area are actually lower than yesterday.
- Evangeline Road in Montz has been barricaded. Water is coming over the tracks near Airline Hwy.
- Water levels should begin falling early this afternoon.
- Entergy reports there are 190 customers still left without power this morning. These are scattered in Luling, Bayou Gauche, Destrehan, and other areas.

Hurricane Ike Statement #3
Hurricane Ike Statement #3 - Noon, Sept. 12, 2008
Tropical Storm force winds from the outer bands of Hurricane Ike are causing power outages across St. Charles Parish, according to Entergy.
Several feeder lines have been damaged, and the outages affect slightly more customers on the West Bank, Entergy spokesperson Doug Rhodes said. There are confirmed outages in Des Allemands and Ama.
Rhodes said Entergy expects to have power restored to pre-Friday morning levels by this evening. Before this latest storm threat, less than 100 customers remained without power from Hurricane Gustav.
The power outages have forced the Department of Wastewater to ask all residents to conserve water usage until power can be restored. Some sewer lift stations have lost power, which is putting pressure on the system.
Winds at the St. Charles Parish Courthouse today reached gusts of 69 mph, with average sustained winds of 18 mph. Weather effects from Ike are expected to lessen by Saturday night, but the threat of flooding will remain all day. As Ike pushes onshore in Texas, winds will shift and come from the south, pushing water into the Barataria Basin.
The St. Charles Parish Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness continues to ask that residents of Bayou Gauche and Des Allemands remain vigilant in paying attention to water levels surrounding the Sunset Drainage District Levees. Due to the potential of rising water, isolated evacuations in areas south of Highway 90 may be necessary if conditions exist for an imminent flood. Residents in the Willowdale and Willowridge areas of Luling could see street flooding similar to that of Tropical Storm Frances in 1998.
Sandbags are available at Badeaux Lane in Bayou Gauche.
The St. Charles Parish Sheriff's Office is currently investigating the vandalism of flood control water tubes deployed in the Des Allemands area along Bayou Des Allemands. Evidence indicates that approximately $20,000 in U.S. Flood Control Tubes rented by St. Charles Parish to protect Des Allemands residents from flooding have been intentionally damaged. The damage was most likely inflicted by the use of knives.
The St. Charles Parish Public Works Department has already repaired the areas using a combination of visqueen and sand.
Additionally, the Sheriff's Office is asking that local traffic on FRIDAY be restricted to necessary travel only because of dangerous tropical storm force winds.
Storm debris pickup has been suspended today because of high winds, Parish President V.J. St. Pierre announced this morning.
St. Charles Parish residents are urged to stay tuned to Cable Channel 6, http://www.stcharlesgov.net/ and 1370 AM for further updates.

As Hurricane Ike threatens the Gulf Coast, a Tropical Storm Warning has been issued for St. Charles Parish. The area should experience Tropical Storm conditions early Friday morning consisting of sustained winds in excess of 45 mph with stronger gusts, debris in the streets and loss of power.
In order to ensure the safety of students and employees, Superintendent Dr. Rodney Lafon has made the decision, as recommended by the Department of Emergency Preparedness, to close schools to include Central Office on Friday, Sept. 12.
The football games scheduled for both Hahnville and Destrehan for tomorrow night have been canceled.
Destrehan has rescheduled their game against St. James for Sunday, Sept. 14 at 4 p.m. The game will be played at Destrehan High School.
Hurricane Ike Statement #2
Frances pushed 4.5 feet of storm surge into St. Charles Parish, which put water onto streets in Luling's Willowdale Subdivision and tested the levees surrounding the communities of Des Allemands and Bayou Gauche. Frances also made landfall in Texas.
Ike, which is now located 215 miles due south of the mouth of the Mississippi River, could bring 3 to 5 feet of storm surge on the West Bank of St. Charles Parish. Tides have already brought water levels to 2 feet above normal. Winds will push water towards the coast for about 18 to 20 hours in total. Ike's full impact will not be known until early Saturday, Troxler said.
The parish remains under a tropical storm warning and coastal flood warning.
Parish President V.J. St. Pierre Jr. this morning signed an emergency declaration for the parish. St. Pierre and officials with the St. Charles Parish Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness are monitoring Ike's progress, and work has begun to shore up vulnerable areas along the Sunset Drainage District Levee on the West Bank. Flood control tubes remain in place in this area.
Sanbags are now available at Bayou Gauche and under the bridge in Des Allemands. More locations may be opened tomorrow if needed.
Due to the potential of rising water, isolated evacuations in areas south of Highway 90 may be necessary if conditions exist for an imminent flood.
Wind gusts at the St. Charles Parish courthouse today reached 47 mph. The high winds have already caused intermittent power outages in Norco and the Mimosa and Coronado Park areas of Luling. Entergy says power should be restored quickly in these areas.
Winds of over 40 mph will arrive overnight across the parish, with the heaviest winds coming in around daybreak Friday. Rainfall totals are expected to be relatively low, at 1 to 2 inches.
Additionally, the St. Charles Parish Sheriff's Office is asking that unecessary travel be avoided on Friday due to tropical storm force winds.
Bayou Gauche Road on the island has been barricaded by DOTD. Water is already covering the road in some areas. If you do not live along this road, we are recommending that you do NOT travel on it.
St. Charles Parish government offices will open tomorrow for regular hours.
Public Schools in St. Charles Parish have been cancelled Friday.
Food Stamps closed Friday, Sept. 12 and Saturday, Sept. 13

DEBRIS REMOVAL – COX PEDESTAL ISSUE
Post-Gustav, Cox is working hard to rebuild and restore our network. After Hurricane Katrina, the company’s rebuilding and service restoration struggled due to citizens piling their debris and tree limbs on our service boxes/cylinders (commonly known as pedestals) and when the debris removal trucks came to pickup, they would pull-up the pedestal hidden beneath the debris with their front loaders. The issue happened repeatedly and destroyed our plant equipment and put Cox back even further in restoring services. A pedestal is a green box or narrow stack that sticks out of the ground approximately every 2 to 3 homes located about 6ft off the curb. After Gustav, Cox is being proactive and reaching out to all parishes and municipalities requesting that they stress to their constituents the importance of not stacking their debris and broken limbs on cable or utility pedestals. This affects mainly neighborhoods where their cable and power is delivered underground.
Cox had more post-Katrina damage to our plant/infrastructure due to debris removal/pedestal damage than the company had from the entire Katrina storm alone. As citizens are getting back, Cox is trying to remind them before they begin their cleanup to avoid placing their debris on these pedestals or boxes. Your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
COX CUSTOMER FAQs

There is no need for you to call to report an outage. Please know that Cox employees are working around-the-clock in conjunction with the city, parish and electrical utilities to restore your services.
- When can I expect my services to be restored? In addition to our monitoring network, Cox had conducted network surveys on the ground where areas are accessible and in the air where they are not.

Please know that Cox employees are working around-the-clock to restore your services as quickly as possible.
- What is Cox doing to restore services? Cox Communications has been one of the first organizations to have employees safely re-enter storm-affected areas. They are working to ensure the safety of our customers, repair our network and quickly restore services. Cox has also mobilized forces from other Cox markets that will be traveling to assist in expediting this process.
- What should I do if my video/phone/Internet service is out? Cox has been monitoring our network throughout the recovery and we are aware of the video, Internet and telephone outages that are being experienced.

Hurricane Gustav Debris Removal Update
St. Charles Parish President V.J. St. Pierre Jr. and parish officials Wednesday met with contractors to discuss the progress of garbage pickup and debris removal around the parish.
Coastal Waste Services began regular household garbage pickup Sept. 5. District Manager Gus Bordelon reports that all locations in St. Charles Parish have been serviced as of Sept. 9. Because of the high volume of household waste being left curbside, residents can expect at least some delay in service, he said. His company has added two garbage trucks to its usual fleet of six to handle the extra work.
Garbage pickup continues to be completed as closely as possible to the normal schedule.
Debris removal began in earnest on Sept. 9, with 4,058 cubic yards collected on the first day and 5,890 cubic yards collected the next. Bordelon estimates his crews will collect over 100,000 cubic yards of debris in total.
Bordelon expects crews to complete their first sweep of the parish in 7 to 10 days, with a second pass beginning thereafter. Twenty-eight crews are now actively working in all council districts.
Officials are continuing to urge residents to separate 'green' debris (leaves, branches, etc.) from construction debris and household garbage. Bagged leaves are considered storm debris and will be picked up separately from household garbage. Debris must be placed curbside away from ditches in order to be removed. These small steps will save time and help crews complete their tasks more quickly.
Parish officials have been told that FEMA will handle debris removal along Louisiana state highways. State highways in St. Charles Parish include Paul Maillard Road and Barton Ave. in Luling, Apple Street in Norco, Bayou Gauche Road in Bayou Gauche and Old Spanish Trail in Boutte.
The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development has hired Aspundh Tree Service to handle debris removal along these roadways. The estimated time frame for completion is three to four weeks.
