For all, this is the Cat Island in Louisiana

Another thing, as fishfighter said walking on this island is illegal, we had special permission to take soil samples to assess the situation that cat island is in. And from the soil samples we took Cat Island is one decent hurricane from getting wiped out completely.

You work or gov agency or private consultant? Does Plaquemines parish really have the necessary money to Do anything other than try to ring it with rocks?

For a coastal lesson on why rocks don't always work in LA, get on google earth and look at Time lapsed photos of Wine Island in Terrebonne in Google earth from 2004ish-2012. The island migrated out of the ring of rocks! Also,rocks were a disaster at East Timbalier, now you have a ton of submerged hazards and not Much island remaining to show for It.

Plaquemines should dredge and fill to inclease the acreage and get a little more bang for the buck.
