Coffee Point Dike-notching Project
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Engineer Research and Development Center
June 13, 2018 | 8:09
With the recent completion of the Coffee Point project in Louisiana, the Lower Mississippi River Conservation Committee has rehabilitated more than 100 miles of secondary channels in six states. Such projects improve habitat for three endangered species along the Lower Mississippi: the Pallid Sturgeon, the Interior Least Tern and the Fat Pocketbook mussel. The projects also provide more paddling, fishing and other outdoor recreation opportunities away from navigation channels. Funding for the Coffee Point project was provided by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's National Fish Passage Program and The Nature Conservancy. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers provides in-kind engineering and other support for such projects. The Lower Mississippi River Conservation Committee, http://lmrcc.org, is a partnership of state natural resource and water quality agencies and the Fish and Wildlife Service, which provide staff support.
