So while the weirs may not be the best option for all parties, they are better than losing all the marsh and then there is no habitat for all those shrimp and redfish yall are crying about
That is what it all boils down to....they are trying to save land with weirs,not fish and shrimp. Just look at the wax lake outlet....only area in la building land. If the wax was never dug im sure there would not be much land left between the open bay/gulf and morgan city.
