They have the barge sunk into place, they have three spud barges behind the intermac 600 they sheet piled into the banks, and have 17000 tons of rip rap for added support for the sheet pile and hopefully some good north wind and God

You can drill down to the details of this operation by watching the YouTube video (parts 3 and 4) of the Morgan City town meeting on May 13.

Bill Hidalgo, President of the St. Mary Levee District, lays out the details of the Bayou Chene barge plan.

Part 4 begins right in the middle of the explanation so you need to first watch the part 3 video starting at 5:54.

Morgan City Public Info Meeting on 2011 Flood Fight & Potential Impact of Morganza Opening

Part 3

Part 4

Those videos are 13+ minutes in duration.
