re: Planned freshwater diversions will doom LA salt fishing

There's still a crazy amount of silt in the Mississippi

My thinking behind that is different strata layers in the river with different amounts of silt, with different sized particles. Stir up the bottom heavy stuff a mile of half mile before the diversion and properly place the diversion according to the bends in the river.
It is obvious that the diversions are only pulling the very top, less sediment dense portions of water. Get the sediment to the top and less CFM of water is required, less deep diversions, and costs exponentially less than dredging
