The public comment period is underway for permits related to a project that would develop a new grain elevator and terminal on a 248-acre site on the right descending bank of the Lower Mississippi River in St. John the Baptist Parish, La., near the town of Wallace.
Greenfield Louisiana LLC has applied for permits with both the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). The Corps permits are related to Section 10 of the Rivers & Harbors Act and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act.
