Additional slurry material for blasting the third levee section (outflow crevasse) is expected to arrive later today.
We expect it to take approximately 3 hours to load into pipes.
The earliest we could complete the breaching of this levee section would be 8 or 9 p.m. tonight.
We'll continue to post regular updates.
