Terrebonne parish has been building scaled down versions of the Morganza levees as well as putting in flood gates for the last few years. That is the reason Terrebonne parish has one of the highest sales tax in the nation at 10.5% they didn’t feel we could wait for the feds so began working on it on our own.

Terrebonne and the state have permitted, procured real estate, and built to get to the states 20% match for MtG.

They arranged it that way to remove all excuses for the corps to refuse to fund.

That’s the same as Calcasieu. It’s ridiculous over there.
