I know, let's levee off part of North Big Lake an fill it in. No, there were too many negative comments on that proposal. How about levee off 1/4 of Black lake and fill it in, Oh yea, that's already been done.
OK, I done ranting, sorry.
No!!! That is sediment that needs to go somewhere else to build more marsh, valuable marsh that we are losing every day. Southwest La may actually be gaining land, whereas SE is losing acres a day. Save the marsh!!!!!!!!!
