So, back to the weirs...Has anything changed from last year?

Reduction of flow through the Atchafalaya is the last thing you want if your hope is to save Vermilion Bay and the surrounding area.

As MG said, nothing has changed with the weirs, but is that a bad thing? I haven't been there in a while now, but the purpose is to maintain and improve the Cameron-Creole marsh. If any marsh was gained, then I'd say the management is doing what it is supposed to do.
