Fresh water won't kill saltwater species. Those species will just be outcompeted by fresh water species.
Just to clarify.

That may be correct. However, the one thing you can absolutely bank on is that there will be another hurricane or tropical storm which will flood the former salt marsh, now dominated by freshwater species, with salt water. If freshwater species have taken over due to artificial amounts of retained freshwater, then what is there will be killed. A healthy brackish marsh along the coast is a protective barrier. If the ducks don't want to land there, they will land a few miles further inland, as they have done for ... what ... thousands of years? tens of thousands of years?
