Funny that you mention that. I just got finished with a contracted project on the impacts of diverting the Mississippi River into Maurepas Swamp. Looks like they might not need to anymore, though.

As far as southern Plaquemines parish goes, I think it is a total loss. It is located on a river delta, which (by definition) shifts regularly with the river flow and with coastal storms. Same concept as building a house on a beach on the east coast. That land is not meant to be habitable. I should think they would be better off economically relocating the people that live in literal delta land to higher land. The NHC has said that this pattern of strong hurricanes will be in effect for many more years. If another one should come along...

I looked at a fresh sattelite pic yesteday and it looked like there was almost no land left in lower plaquemines except along the river levee. Time to breach that levee if that's true. Nothing left to save.
