BELLE CHASSE, La. (AP) — A first of its kind project to use mud dredged from the Mississippi River to help restore south Louisiana’s wetlands was announced Tuesday by Gov. Bobby Jindal. Jindal says the $28 million project in Plaquemines Parish is a new way for Louisiana to fight coastal erosion. He says scientists and engineers have done enough studies and that it’s time to build land in Louisiana’s badly eroded coast. By summer, a cutter-head dredge will begin pumping mud from the Mississippi into a piece of marsh under water. –Contact The Daily Reveille’s news staff at [email protected]
