Construction is underway on a 32-million dollar project along the coast of Cameron Parish that will turn open water back intio marsh. Louisiana Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority Project Manager Jessica Diez says it will restore 308 acres of coastal marsh habitat and eleven acres of earthen terraces.
“We’ve lost approximately 7,000 acres of land that have opened up to open water and this is a huge area to protect Calcasieu Parish,” said Diez.
The area being restored is northwest of Holly Beach. The $32-million-dollar project is funded by the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act, and is it a joint effort by CPRA and NOAA.
