Description

Louisiana's commercial fishing, seafood, and charter industries were directly impacted by the opening(s) of the bonnet carre spillway in 2019. The louisiana department of wildlife and fisheries (ldwf) will conduct financial assistance in the form of direct payments to the impacted industries to alleviate the significant losses incurred as a result of the flooding event. Direct payments will benefit the fishery by providing economic support to continue operations, therefore providing incentive to retain the historical participants of the industries. Projects to enhance and improve louisiana's marine fisheries and seafood businesses will also aid in the long-term stability of these industries. The ldwf will also administer restoration activities to enhance habitat damaged from the spillway openings.
