R. J. THIBODEAUX SHELL YARD INCORPORATED

R. J. THIBODEAUX SHELL YARD INCORPORATED specializes in the extraction and supply of construction-grade aggregates, including crushed limestone and construction sand and gravel, primarily serving critical infrastructure projects in the Gulf Coast region. The company operates quarries and mining facilities to produce standardized aggregate materials used in flood control structures, roadbeds, and hydraulic engineering systems. Their technical expertise lies in sustainable mineral extraction, material grading compliance, and site-specific aggregate processing tailored to federal civil works requirements, particularly in environmentally sensitive basins like the Atchafalaya. Key differentiators include precision material sourcing for erosion control applications and adherence to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and DOI specifications for aggregate purity, gradation, and durability. The contractor has delivered materials directly to the Department of the Interior and the Department of Defense, supporting large-scale environmental and military infrastructure initiatives. For the Interior, they have supplied limestone for wetland restoration and levee reinforcement in the Atchafalaya Basin, while for the Defense Department, they provided bulk aggregates under a multiple-award blanket purchase agreement for floodway system construction, indicating a track record of meeting stringent military engineering standards. Their primary industry focus is on NAICS 212321 (construction sand and gravel mining) and 212312 (crushed limestone mining), positioning them as a regional supplier of engineered mineral products for federal civil works, flood mitigation, and defense construction. They specialize in high-volume, low-impurity aggregates suited for structural backfill, drainage layers, and riprap applications. As a small business structured as a 2L entity based in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana, the company operates with deep regional knowledge of Gulf Coast geology and permitting environments. While no federal certifications are listed, their consistent performance on federally funded projects demonstrates reliability in meeting government quality and delivery standards within their niche aggregate supply market.
