Anything new re: the hydrocarbon/petro-chem boom for SW La.?

I currently reside in this area, and, I am a proud native son of Louisiana.
I haven't heard anything new about this economic "boom" that is expected for this region.
Can the OT please share what you know or heard about this exciting possibility?
The western parts of Louisiana are beautiful, and, there is PLENTY of room for growth. The hilly parts are quite beautiful.
Could this potential economic boom possibly trigger some population growth out here?
Or will this part of the state always be the sparsely populated buffer region between the Spanish Empire and the French Empire in the New World?
Thanks.

With no MS river. The river is the reason for the industry.

correct. New Orleans and Baton Rouge wouldn't be there without it. Even Houston wouldn't be as big as it is without the shipping channel.

New Orleans itself is having a nice boom. Louisiana could have the coffers over flowing if it wasn't for the politicians.

Thanks, but, what about news concerning oil & gas development.
PS Thanks for the history lesson. I don't want to hi jack my own thread but, when you drive into La. the Welcome sign uses the French word for "welcome" and not the Spanish word. This is a strong clue that the French influence in La. is greater than the Spanish. But, I agree that we should be aware of both influences.

Didn't you get all the information you needed in the TMS thread?

Was wondering if this was another thread aimed at TMS discussion. Looks like I'm not the only one with interested in it
