"Harbor Branch" Project was an extensive one <br />of earthwork and drainage water weir culvert structure installation. It included excavation of <br />6,340 linear feet of Perimeter ditch and placement of the dredged fill into 3,600 linear feet of <br />geo-tubes, reconstruction of 11,070 linear feet of textile -wrapped dike or Geo -Grid to stabilize <br />the berm, 10,880 linear feet of Rip Rap and the installation of 18 new Weir Structure Culverts. <br />The Culverts will provide exchange of tidewater between the estuary and the wetlands. The <br />Harbor Branch Project proved to have many challenges for Blue Goose, construction access <br />issues, coupled with heavy amounts or rain causing the dike soils to sink and additional fill to <br />slough into the impoundment ditch. A geotechnical firm was brought in and necessary changes <br />were made to complete the Project. Existing severely limited soil conditions proved difficult for <br />installation of water control structures while at the same time maintaining dike integrity and <br />environmental eco system stabilization. <br />P 0 Box 14709 * Ft Pierce, FL 34979-4709 * Ph.
