I would think they would preferably send it to the Mississippi. Pontchartrain is going to become a sewage hole, otherwise.

You rekon the injunears that have been working with system have a better grasp on the problem than you? Don't try to be the smartest one in the room.

They can only pump from there into Lake P. Not worried about the water condition. Lake P will swallow it and burp it out thru Lake Borgne and out to sea.

The real problem is additional levee failure before you get it pumped out.

I rekon that the injunears blew it on this one. One of the levees that failed was new. The new one should have performed at least as well as the old.
There are many great engineers but there are plenty of morons too. My brother is an electrical engineer and I wouldn't trust him to screw in a light bulb. I've worked with others too, PhDs that I doubt could figure out how to work a can opener.
Genius is not the exclusive domain of registered engineers. I do have a lot of respect for the Corps of Engineers but it is encumbered by a huge bureaucracy now.

There is no reason for you to attack other Freepers for offering an opinion.
