Marsh Island Hydrologic Restoration
PROJECT LOCATION:
The project is located in St. Mary Parish on the Marsh Island Wildlife Refuge.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Natural erosional processes and subsidence along the northeast shoreline of Marsh Island have led to the deterioration of the north rim of Lake Sand. The objective of the project is to stabilize the northeastern shoreline of Marsh Island, including the northern shoreline of Lake Sand, and help to restore historical hydrology. The project consists of construction of 9 plugs in oil and gas canals at the NE end of Marsh Island; protection of the NE shoreline with rock; and isolation of Lake Sand from Vermilion Bay with rock dike.
