If you’re interested in the read, plans are being developed to increase the flow in Bayou Lafourche


Where can I read about this? I have been hearing this for over a decade. I live on the bayou.

They now have locks in Lockport, Larose and 2 in Golden Meadow. I am not sure how much more they can flow when they close the locks all the damn time. The bayou didn't drop at all last week with the front that we had.

i am not 100% familiar with Lafourche system but i do not see any lock in lockport and the gate in larose has its leafs removed. The lock at the end of the Hurricane protection system has been staying close more recently to hold back more freshwater for the betterment of the bayou.
