摘要: There is no other port quite like Louisiana's Port Four-chon. Operated by the Greater Lafourche Port Commission (GLPC), it sits at the southernmost point of Louisiana accessible by road and is near the greatest amount of energy infrastructure in the Gulf of Mexico, miles closer than any other service port. "Over the years, we have taken an increasingly holistic approach to our port development," said the port's executive director, Chett Chiasson. "Since Hurricane Katrina [in 2005], we have focused on making sure that our projects and infrastructure are built to a higher standard. We have increased the base elevation of our newer slips, our roads, bulkheads, you name it." In addition, the port's benefactors have continued to add hundreds of additional acres of wetlands through its continued development to protect its tenants' assets "in a natural way," said Chaisson. Wetlands are a natural barrier against hurricanes.
