摘要: The Mississippi Valley Engineer Division and the New Orleans Engineer District have granted the conditional permit and Section 408 permission to Louisiana's Coastal Protection & Restoration Authority (CPRA) for the long-sought-after $2.3 billion Mid-Barataria Sediment Diversion on the west bank of the Mis-sissippi River near the community of Ironton in Plaquemines Parish. The structure will involve a break in the river levee just above Ironton and a canal extending 2 miles to the southwest and ending in the upper reaches of Barataria Bay. The Baratar-ia region is seeing some of the highest rates of land loss in a state that's losing about a football field of land every 100 minutes due to subsidence, erosion and relative sea level rise.
