The Board of State Engineers was
represented by Capt. F. NJ. Kerr.
The minutes of last meeting were
read and approved.
Capt. F. NJ. Kerr read the follow
ing report:
STATE OF LOUISIANA,
BOARD OF STATE ENGINEERS,
New Orleans, May 7, 1896.
Since the last meeting of the Board
of Commissioners of the Bossier
Levee District, all the work under
taken in the District has been COM
pleted, the latest being the State work
al Taylors and at Willow Bend, con-
sisting of about a half mile of new
levee, and about a miles Of enlarge
ment, and amounting to COSTS cubic
yards of earthwork, costing S8945.83.
The Board of State Engineers, in
conformity with its usual custom, has
recently, under date OF April Goth,
submitted to His Excellency, the
Governor, a report detailing the levee
work undertaken and done in the
State, by the Districts, by the State,
and by the United States, during the
period extending between the ses-
sions of the General Assembly of
the State. The following extracts
from this biennial report bear direct
" upon the Bossier Levee District,
and may not be uninteresting at this
time.
This work undertaken and done in
the Bossier Levee District from April
| 20, 1894, to April 20, 1896, is as fol
lows:
By the District: 1874 miles new
levee, 0.98 miles OF enlargement
amounting to 145,0l0 cubic yards O
earthwork, costing $2l,479 SO. II
addition to this, the sum of $175(
was contributed by the District to
ward the cost of the State work from
Knox Point to Buckhorn, and $250l
towards that from Hurricane Bluff t,
Willow Chute.
By the State: 500 miles of new
levee, 4.98 miles of enlargement
amounting to 393,741 cubic yards o
eathwork, costing $22,S45 rs.
a By the United States, under tn
! direction of Maj. J. 81. Willard: rs
s miles of new levee, amounting t.
: 261, 455 cubic yards of earthworl
=, costing $8s,o2a "A.
}. The aggregate of this is 1875
t miles of new levee, 500 miles of en-
t largement, S00,206 cubic yards c
: earthwork and an expenditure c
+ s1O2, 74o,09.
r The river front of the Bessie
Levee District is about IS miles i
length, but owing to the tortuou
course of Red River, many very pre-
. nounced points occur in it's length
requiring the levee line, for safet
and economy, to be located ac'o'
them instead of following aroun
them, parallel to the general directio
of the stream, as is usual in mos
other localities, in which way ii
length of the system of public levee
y in Bossier, when completed, wi
probably not exceed sixty miles.
OF this sixty miles of levee requi
ed for the District, about fifty mile
l. have already been built and improve
II to grade of three feet above tt
k highest water so far known in Re
l. River. This leaves about ten mil,

IN Bossler, when completed, WILL
probably not exceed sixty miles.
OF this sixty miles of levee requir-
ed for the District, about fifty miles
have already been built and improved
to a grade of three feet above the
highest water so far known in Red
River. This leaves about ten miles
only partially and imperfectly levied,
over which an improved system re-
mains to be extended. The work
necessary for this extention, and to
give all parts Of the line already i'm
proved an equal promise of security
against overflow, with that probably
requisite for the further raising and
enlargement of grades and sections
which may yet be found necessary, as
the floods are more completely con-
fined, will involve not less than
1000, 900 cubic yards of earthwork.
