Finally, due to the state putting in dams and control structures, will the state then purchase the land they impacted due to raising the low water mark along rivers on what was private land?


This is something often overlooked. Terrebonne Parish has put in these new levees and everything south of them floods if there is more than 2 days of south winds. IMO, this levee installation amounts to a taking since my camp property is flooded with 1-5" or more of water many times a year. This didn't happen before the levee.

We have lots of acreage that was land before structures were put in in north Louisiana that the government impacted to create a flood control for a public duck hunting lake. As a landowner in this situation we just have to be ok with what was once private recreational property just becoming public? All I'm saying is there is way more impacted in this decision beyond the private gates in the marsh.
