Sound advice. Upon my understanding most of these "takings" are about compensation and result in settlements. I have been keeping up with Port Arthur Pipeline (PAPL) activity in the Sulphur and Carlyss areas in Calcasieu Parish. PAPL has filed suits in Federal Court against several land owner...
What is the 'highest and best" use of this property?...
I have quite a bit of experience with eminent domain. Almost of it was with pipeline companies. Since you might deal with the government, I suggest that you read about the acquisition process with the I-10 Calcasieu River Bridge project. This process is more favorable to landowners than it was w...

It is because it is a young hawk. At maturity the upperparts will be blue-gray. Likely a Cooper's Hawk as opposed to Sharp-shinned Hawk due to its size....

DiBartolo to LeBato for the name change? Goosport folks?...

I just read about the Sackett ruling. It seems to suggest that less mitigation and permitting will be required. Would you care to speculate how it would affect the property value potentially for sale to an industrial developer? FWIW the parcel located south of Maplewood/Sulphur....
I do recall that the evaluation would no longer be valid after five years. There were some maps associated with the report which was done by Providence Engineering of Baton Rouge. They did provide come Army Corps numbers for clarification upon my recollection. I will reach out to them. After sea...
Not that I recall the term mosaic was mentioned. Somehow I remember the description of "pimple mounds."...
I will get back with you. Thanks....
I will have to find it. It was done in 2016....
A Jurisdictional Determination of an 80 acre parcel of property was determined to be 38% wetlands. It was approved by the Army Corps of Engineers. (A few acres are (23) non-wet and 4 acres are 100% wet.) Does this mean that 38% of every acre of the property is "wet" and must be mitigated? Is...
For comparison Barbe HS won the 4 x 100 relay in 2002 with a 40.78 which remains the record for Class 5A. I do not think another Louisiana team has run a sub 41 since. Former LSU running back Justin Vincent was a relay team member. The time of 40.78 was recognized as 2nd in the nation but it did no...
A major mistake made by many investors is to give power to perceived experts. Aren't the lessons we remember best are the ones we learn the hard way ? ...
Does the educated man really quit learning? ...
You seem to have a peculiar thing to worried about. I am also retired and you and I have survived a downturn and have lived long enough to participate in the upturn. Congratulations for not selling your investments when their values dropped. You should be able to get some good advice on obtainin...
Thank you. There is nothing amusing about calling those passes....
It fell a wee bit short. Certainly not purporting to thinking rationally, somehow Friday would be meaningful to me. ...
I am out of bullets. Within the 401 K plan I was about 81% S & P Index at its peak and now 97%. It took almost two years to recover which was in the 4650's category. Most likely I will rebalance the account at about 5000. ...
