Information About

Bayou Lafourche




A project to reconnect Bayou Lafourche to the Mississippi River at Donaldsonville is currently under design. The plan is to use a control structure to regulate the water discharge. The purpose is to mitigate the accelerated land loss that followed the interruption of the distributary flow, and also to improve water quality in the bayou.
