Default submerged pipeline south of Turners on West bank
I just wanted to warn everyone of this since it has 0 floats or markers on it. It has one little white warning sign. I almost hit it Saturday. Does anyone know who's project this is? I would like to call them and tell them they need more floats and better signage.

Yep, LDWF hit it going 40 mph in one of their big Whalers.
If they can't get anything done about it, not sure if we can.

It is a dredge pipeline to send spoil from a small dredge to the bank.

I just rolled over it. I was lucky that I saw it soon enough to where I shut it down and turned sharp. No damage to my hull that I can see on my trailer anyway, but it easily could have done a bunch of damage if I wouldn't have seen it at the last second.

Could someone post a map with the location of the pipeline to help prevent any future accidents?

Texaco Cut is the cut on the bottom of the red line.
You can also see the production facilities barge on the right.

The hard dredge pipe is straight. The flex line has floats all over it.

It is on the North side of Texaco Cut, but runs at an angle towards Heberts.
You can see a small dredge. About 30 ft. long and 10 ft. wide on the very end and the flex line behind it has a bunch of square black floats on it.
