Louisiana still has not lifted 2019 restriction on freight vessels upstream from NOLA

Major Mississippi River restriction is affecting Baton Rouge business; industry wants it overturned
LINK
Industry advocates have been pressuring local river pilots' board members for months to reverse the ban on night time shipments and appealed to the state for help.
The restriction to daylight hours on the river in the Baton Rouge area is significant because petrochemical plants lining the shore are nonstop operations for efficiency and to meet customer demand.

BRAC appealed to Gov. John Bel Edwards and the Louisiana Legislature to take action regarding the issue, which is compounded by the fact that the restriction only applies to the Baton Rouge section of the river and doesn’t impact New Orleans.

It’s because the river is above 25 feet I believe

Wait this ban is still ongoing? You think this ban MIGHT have something to do with the decline in business to our ports?

You forgot the one part that says, in the first paragraph, at NIGHT

This is a weird thing to be upset about.
This is not an issue like you’re making it out to be.
This time of year during high water and fog, it’s completely normal.
