DESCRIPTION OF LEVEE DISTRICT AREA
The upstream limit on the Mississippi River for the Pontchartrain Levee District is
approximately three-tenths of a mile below (downstream) the Baton Rouge I-10 Bridge at levee
station 00+00 and extends down river to the St. Charles-Jefferson Parish line at levee station
5914+00 all on the east bank of the Mississippi River (115 miles of main line levee). The District is
comprised of six parishes - East Baton Rouge, Iberville, Ascension, St. James, St. John the Baptist
and St. Charles. Administration of levee district affairs is vested in the Board of Commissioners,
composed of nine (9) members.
Office Headquarters: Maintenance Shop:
2204 Albert Street 9620 Highway 44
Lutcher, LA Convent, LA
The Mississippi River relief system, the Bonnet Carre Spillway, is located within our District,
in Norco, Louisiana, although maintenance, upkeep and operation are the United States Army Corps
of Engineers. The decision to operate the Bonnet Carre Spillway is made when existing conditions,
combined with predicated stages and discharges, indicate that the mainline levees in New Orleans
and other downstream communities will be subjected to unacceptable stress from high water and
thus this system allows the Mississippi River flow to be diverted into Lake Pontchartrain and into the
Gulf of Mexico.
In addition to the Pontchartrain Levee District’s maintenance and administrative staff, there is
also a Pontchartrain Levee District Police Department that plays a vital role in the daily operations of
the District. Pontchartrain Levee District Police are very important, not only because they are
enforcing the laws of the State of Louisiana, but because these officers monitor the levee on a daily
basis. Because the levees are constantly being monitored, any change and/or hint of change is
reported to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers immediately for further inspection.

PLD MISSION
The overall mission of the Pontchartrain Levee District is: To maintain the existing levee
systems in a condition that will ensure integrity and capability to safely withstand the river stages and
hurricanes tidal surges anticipated by their design and condition; to improve by construction or
support the construction by others, of new or enhanced levels of protection as design parameters
change or higher levels of protection are authorized; and to anticipate weaknesses in the system
before and as they develop and actively respond with necessary emergency measures when the
levees are being subjected to river stages or hurricanes tidal surges that would cause flooding within
the jurisdiction of the Pontchartrain Levee District all with the regulations, approval and consent from
the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development and the U.S. Army Corps Of
Engineers. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is particularly important in the consultation process
because as designers and constructors of these federal levee systems, the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers has the ultimate authority over such a system that they created.
The Board of Commissioners believes this Emergency Operations Plan is essential in order
to achieve overall coordination and proper cooperation with other Agencies for efficient conduct of
activities during periods of emergency. It is our sincere desire to continue the process of improving
flood protection, maintenance and preservation of flood control works, and emergency operations.
The Board of Commissioners and all employees of the Levee District are dedicated to successful
accomplishment of these broad objectives.

EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN
PURPOSE
During each year all or substantial portions of the Pontchartrain Levee District are subject to
the potential disasters of major proportions which require planned emergency operations to protect
people and developments located within impact areas. In addition, this plan is vital for proper
maintenance, protection and preservation of the Mississippi River levees and flood protection
facilities.
These potential disasters result from Mississippi River, Lake Pontchartrain and Lake
Maurepas high water(s), hurricane(s) and large scale accidents of industry and transportation. Thus,
the Pontchartrain Levee District must be prepared to respond immediately to disaster occurrences
with appropriate emergency operations suitable to each instance.
The purpose of this report is to present a plan to guide those activities. However, it must be
recognized that emergency situations are not predictable, and due to circumstances of each (i.e.,
flood stages, degree of severity, hazardous impact, life threatening, etc.) plan elements will be
adapted to fit conditions.

FLOOD FIGHT OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER LEVEE
The National Weather Service and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers monitor the river and can
predict the water heights against the Pontchartrain Levee District mainline Mississippi River levees
usually 10 days in advance. There predictions are utilized to determine the severity of the high water
event. The Pontchartrain Levee District monitors the river gages daily at www.rivergages.com for
the most updated gage information throughout the New Orleans District Basins. Generally, “Flood
Fight” on the Mississippi River can be assumed to start when the river gage at Carrollton reaches 11’
and rising. At this point, the river begins to overflow its natural banks and comes against the man-
made levees. Activity increases; diligent surveillance, inspections and high water reports begin. The
businesses along the batture are notified of the increased river stages and precautions are made for
the potential of the river to continue to rise. If there is a continued rise in the river stages, at 15’ on
the Carrollton gage, the Corps of Engineers will halt any and all work within 1500’ of the mainline
Mississippi River levees. An emergency operation activity includes Phase I and Phase II Flood Fight
activities as declared and carried out by the Corps of Engineers. Ordinarily the Corps of Engineers
enters Phase I prior to a river stage of 12 feet on the Carrollton Gage and Phase II at 15 feet.
1) River gage at 11 feet on the Carrollton Gage in New Orleans, the Emergency Coordinator will have a meeting with the following:
a) Executive Director f) Levee Foremen B b) Levee Maintenance Superintendent g) Heavy Equipment Foreman c) Mobile Equipment Shop Superintendent h) Police Captain d) Shop Foreman i) Police Lieutenant e) Levee Foreman C

STORM/HURRICANE OPERATIONS OVERALL : From the time a storm (potential or actual
hurricane) is reported to possibly enter the Gulf of Mexico, the storm/hurricane path and forecasts
are carefully monitored. When a storm/hurricane moves into or is spawned in the Gulf of Mexico its
path is plotted from official reports and bulletins. Due to abilities of storms to change rapidly and
quickly become dangerous, the Pontchartrain Levee District must be prepared to respond promptly to
protect the levee system and minimize potential damages in the levee district area to the greatest
extent possible. Three different levels of Hurricane Emergency Operations have been established to
accommodate a phased increase in Levee Board activity. It is possible that a storm/hurricane could
form within any of the three phases described herein, and actions would be undertaken as described
under the applicable phase. Initiation of these activities will be determined by Executive Director after
consultation with the President and Emergency Coordinator. Those three phases are:
Phase I - Hurricane Threat—storm appears to be tracking as if it will enter the
Gulf of Mexico and potentially be a threat (H-72 hours out)*
Phase II - Hurricane Watch—storm poses a potential threat concerning the
safety and welfare of the citizens within the Pontchartrain Levee
District jurisdictions (H-48 to H-40 hours out)*
Phase III - Hurricane Warning- storm poses an actual threat and major impact
concerning the safety and welfare of the citizens within the
Pontchartrain Levee District jurisdictions (H-30 to H-24 hours out)*
*Depending on the actual circumstances of the storm, there may be more or less time
available; these phases were created based on history and reasonable justification.
Contact Personnel:
1) Emergency Coordinator will have meeting with storm committee members:
a) Executive Director f) Levee Foremen B b) Levee Maintenance Superintendent g) Heavy Equipment Foreman c) Mobile Equipment Shop Superintendent h) Police Captain d) Shop Foreman i) Police Lieutenant e) Levee Foreman C
2) Emergency Coordinator will track storm and make notification of Phase I to:

CANADIAN NATIONAL RAILROAD SWING GATE OPERATION INFORMATION
Prior to closing the Canadian National Railway Swing Gate, the Canadian National Railway Chief Dispatcher should be notified to halt train traffic and notify them of a track obstruction. (Refer to the Canadian National Railway Floodgate contact information sheet) There are locks on the gate, and there is a railing that needs to be removed prior to closing the gate. The gate must be tethered at all times to prevent a free swing. The railroad swing gate could be especially difficult to close in windy conditions. The City of New Orleans has developed a plan to use the Canadian National Railway as an evacuation route. The City Assist Evacuation Plan goes into effect at “54 hours out,” which means 54 hours before tropical storm force winds of 39 mph reach coastal Louisiana. Between 54 hours and 30 hours out, the railroad would be used as a potential evacuation route. Evacuation by rail could continue until 12 hours out if needed. All railroad traffic should be west of the Canadian National Railway Swing Gate by 12 hours out. At this point, the Pontchartrain Levee District will have contacted all parties (refer to contact information at the front of this report) to notify them that the swing gate will be closed.
PONTCHARTRAIN LEVEE DISTRICT OPERATION PROCEDURES
FOR THE CANADIAN NATIONAL RAILROAD SWING GATE IN ST. CHARLES PARISH
The Canadian National Railroad Swing Gate, located at the eastern edge of the St. Charles Parish Hurricane Protection Levee at the St. Charles Parish/Jefferson Parish Line, is a 16 ton gate which closes the gap on the Hurricane Protection Levee in St. Charles Parish. The Pontchartrain Levee District (PLD) has trained personnel on staff to open and close the gate following the procedures described herein.
Since the operation of the gate will typically take place during extreme weather events, and since the gate is in place to contain floodwaters from entering the Parish from Lake Pontchartrain, main concerns include maintaining total control of the gate during the opening/closing procedures and achieving the proper seal adjustments once the gate is closed. Routine maintenance, lubrication, and visual inspections of the locking mechanisms, jacking screw, pivot points and hinges, seal, winches, cables and supports will be performed by the PLD on a quarterly basis. The CNR is responsible for maintaining their alarm and electro-lock. An annual inspection will be performed by representatives of the PLD, the CNR and the US Army Corps of Engineers. Listed below are the operation procedures for the swing gate:
1) If a storm, and/or rising waters from storm surge, poses a threat to St. Charles Parish within 24 hours, the Pontchartrain Levee District (PLD) will contact the ICCN Railroad to inform them of the need for the potential closing of the railroad swing gate by calling the Chief Dispatcher at 800 585 4967. Due to the City of New Orleans’ City Assisted Evacuation Plan (CAEP) which includes evacuation by rail, other emergency contacts are needed prior to the closing of the gate. These include, but are not limited to, the City of New Orleans, Department of Homeland Security, Amtrak, State of Louisiana, Department of Transportation and Development (LDOTD) and the Federal Railroad Administration. Please see the Emergency Contact List attached.
2) Just prior to the scheduled closing time, railroad personnel should arrive at the site to
disengage the alarm and electro-lock . If RR personnel are not on site at the scheduled time or if, for some reason, the PLD is directed to disengage the alarm and electro-lock, the
- 48 -
procedure is as follows:
A. Remove the locks that open the control switch B. Lift handle in the direction shown C. After 15 seconds, you will hear a “sound” D. Move the handle all the way up
This will alert all train traffic to the impending closure of the gate, and disengage the RR device which informs the RR if the gate moves from its locked, open position. While this is being done, PLD personnel will be removing the handrails from the walkway. They are in the swing path of the gate and need to be removed before closing and opening the gate.
3) Once the RR systems are disengaged, lower the jacking screw, remove the lock and
disengage the locking mechanism attached to the gate. At this point, the cable on the winch located on top of the floodwall is preventing the gate from swinging freely. This cable is attached to the gate at all times.
4) Run the cable from the airport side winch through the tackle block located on the southwest
side of the tracks and attach it to the pull eye on the Swing Gate.
5) Release the braking system on the winch located on top of the floodwall and apply resistance. Begin closing the gate by turning the winch on the airport side of the tracks. Be sure to maintain tension on the winch that is mount ed on the floodwall as this will keep the gate from swinging freely.
6) Once the gate reaches 90° and is directly above the support to which the tackle blocks are
attached, place the cable connected to the winch on top of the floodwall through the tackle block and remove the cable connected to the winch on the airport side of the tracks from the tackle block. This will allow the gate to continue to be closed while maintaining tension on the opposite side.
7) Proceed with the gate closure.
8) After the gate is closed and mechanically secured, begin turning the handwheels on the top
of the gate to lower the seal. Be sure to have someone monitor the dropping of the seal to make sure it is being lowered evenly. If the sea l is lowered at differing rates, it may tear and / or not seal properly.
9) Place the plywood templates, as designed by the PLD Heavy Equipment Department, and
the sand bags in all four areas of the track opening. At this point, the Swing Gate is locked and sealed in its closed position. Before leaving the site, make sure that all winching system cables are properly rewound. Do not leave the cables across the tracks. It gives false signals. Also, replace the handrails to the walkway.
Once there is no longer a need for the Swing Gate to be closed, these procedures will be reversed to open the Swing Gate.
