| 摘要： | The state of Louisiana's Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) is proposing to build a freshwater diversion at Bayou Boeuf Lock in Morgan City near Mile 94 on the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (GIWW) west of Harvey Lock. According to a CPRA fact sheet, the "Increase Atchafalaya Flow to Terrebonne" project will involve four major features: a diversion at Bayou Boeuf Lock, which will funnel water from the Atchafalaya River into the GIWW at an average discharge rate of 8,000 cubic feet per second (cfs.); the dredging of the GIWW between Bayou Boeuf Lock and Bayou Chene to increase flow capacity; the dredging of Bayou Copasaw and Minor's Canal to allow for the southward flow of freshwater; and the beneficial use of dredged material for marsh support in the area. The project is in the engineering phase, and CPRA expects the design to reach the 30 percent mark by early next year. |
