Fish Kill Due To Heat
Reports of a fish kill along the Calcasieu Ship Channel last week were investigated by the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, Department of Environmental Quality, and the Environmental Protection Agency. The fish were determined to have died from low oxygen conditions brought on by the intense heat the area has been experiencing over the past few weeks. Temperatures in the upper 90s and a lack of rain have plagued the parish, but Wednesday brought welcome relief in the form of heavy rain over most of the coastal area.
Southwest Louisiana is still at least 11 inches below average rainfall for the year. |
