2012 Master Plan for La Coast

[Duck Butter]

This is from the Office of Coastal Protection and Restoration, I got this email on a birdwatching website, and figured the fishing/hunting community should know about this as well.


From the website:

The Master Plan will recommend specific actions for saving our coast. In order to make the right choices, the state and its partners must consider the many faces of Louisiana’s coastal crisis. “One size fits all” solutions will not work for the variety of marsh, swamp, cheniers, cities, suburbs, and industrial areas that are part of the coast. It’s also true that we cannot succeed by building one small project at a time. Instead, we must use a regional approach that takes the needs of the entire system into account. That is why the Master Plan will propose a series of projects that can reduce flooding risks and rebuild wetlands on a large scale, while also considering the diverse needs of communities. By using science to consider the benefits our coast provides and the things we must do to sustain and expand those benefits, we can make sound investments for our future.
