River changes course for good
Morgan city is gone
Mississippi River we currently know (downstream of ORCS) will begin to silt in
Navigation and shipping is vastly affected.
Salt water wedge pushes up the Mississippi River to nola possibly cutting freshwater supply all up and down the river
Sooooo not good

Not to mention all of the infrastructure such as bridges in the Atchafalaya floodplain that are not designed for the full flow of the River that may fail. So 90 could conceivably be shut down.

nope to every one of those

Scaremongers seem to forget the MS ran freely down the Atchafalaya for 150 years before the ORCS was put in place and the port of NO was the nations largest during this period.

It is almost like history does not exist for some folks.
