Cajun was selected to perform the 9 levels of pumping, placing, and finishing in a total of 54 mobilizations. Prior to the start of the project, there were concerns about early- morning pours. Delta Testing was commissioned to perform sound-level testing of mixer trucks and concrete pumps to determine if the decibel levels would be intrusive to the surrounding residential area. The results showed that early- morning pours would be acceptable. The average start-time for the pours has been 3am.
