Louisiana Trustees Approve Final Changes to Two Recreational Use Projects

The Louisiana Trustee Implementation Group recently approved changes to two recreational use projects, the Point-aux-Chenes Wildlife Management Area (Point-aux-Chenes WMA) Recreational Use Enhancement Project and the Wetlands Center Project. Both projects were originally selected in the July 2018 Final Restoration Plan and Environmental Assessment #4.

Point-Aux-Chenes Wildlife Management Area Project

As evaluated in the Final Supplemental Envrionmental Assessment for the Point-aux-Chenes Wildlife Management Area Recreational Use Project, one component of the overall project, the boat launch for pirogues, kayaks, and other non-motorized vessels, will be moved from one location to another. 

Wetlands Center Project

In the Final Supplemental Environmental Assessment for the Wetlands Center Project we evaluated changes to the location of the Wetlands Center in the Town of Jean Lafitte. The project will be moved from a wetland area to another location adjacent to the town’s library, multipurpose facility, and Lafitte’s Barataria Museum.
