Grand Isle and Vicinity, Louisiana
The recommended plan of improvement consists of a 2600-foot stone jetty at Caminada Pass to stabilize the western end of Grand Isle and a sandfill dune and berm extending approximately 7.5 miles along the island's gulf shore to provide protection from beach erosion and hurricane waves. Sandfill for the dune and berm would be dredged from offshore bottoms. The recommended jetty, and integral part of the recommended plan, has already been constructed by local interests. The recommended project is located entirely in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana. Environmental impacts are discussed.
