GULFPORT, Miss. (WLOX) - Residents say Turkey Creek in North Gulfport hasn’t flooded as badly as it did last week in several years.
The creek has been the subject of environmental dispute for years. The 12-mile creek is part of a 17,000-acre floodplain that is critical to draining rain waters from Long Beach to Bayou Bernard. There have been numerous studies and plans made but little action to prevent the creek from flooding the communities that surround it.
