The battle for Alligator Bayou ~Amy Wold~While the conflict suggests the two sides have vastly different ideas about managing the Spanish Lake Basin, their overall goals seem remarkably similar. Both say they want to restore the original cycle of wet and dry seasons, which would lead to better tree growth. Both talk about improving water flow in the area through dredging and other methods. And both want to run at least part of their property as for-profit “mitigation banks,” which developers use to compensate for wetlands damaged elsewhere by their projects.

Thank you so much for the recognition! I could have written several pages about my enjoyable time spent in your wonderful city. New Orleans is at the top of my list as far as favorite destinations go. Please let me know of anything going on down there that I could help out with, be aware of, or should just come see!
