| Description |
A jet grout drill rig completes levee work along the American River, underneath the Howe Avenue bridge in Sacramento, Calif., Nov. 24, 2014. Contractors use jet grouting, a surgically-precise method of vertically drilling into the levee and injecting special cement mixtures in overlapping columns, to strengthen the levee when construction is constrained by encroachments like buried utilities, power lines and bridges. The Sacramento District built more than 20 miles of seepage cutoff walls into American River levees between 2000 and 2002, but set aside work around complicated encroachments until now.
