Officials say high water causing erosion on the Bluffs at Southern University

Pictures from the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office show erosion where the river has claimed sections of the barrier just off Southern’s campus. Also, one spot that’s normally visible at the bottom of the levee now sits underwater. Kyle Huffstickler, manager of maintenance for the city, believes right now, there’s not a huge concern, but he says they’re monitoring the area daily.

“That’s just because the water’s up at 44 feet, so it’s caused some of the bluff to slough off a little bit," said Huffstickler. “This was something that the sheriff’s office noticed and brought it to our attention and we just felt like we needed to keep an eye on it.”
