I am camp owner south of the levee in cocodrie, And have been a camp owner for 20 years and fishing down there for 40 . Construction of this levee and its impacts was not communicated to the people south of the levee. Property values are near zero because no one wants to buy anything below the levee anymore.
this levee has changed the marsh south of it ten fold in a matter of a couple years.
I very much see a respect both sides of the argument.
I personally think they need to spend more money on barrier island restoration.. slowing saltwater influx and letting the natural north to south flow of fresh water help the eco system

this is where the vast majority coastal funding went during the 2000s. With regard to restoration anyway.

If you’re interested in the read, plans are being developed to increase the flow in Bayou Lafourche. Should help barataria/east Terrebonne.
