Description

Louisiana has had the luxury of water abundance and high-quality groundwater. However, over the last century, the landscape has changed as has the climate. In the face of droughts, saltwater wedges in rivers and aquifers, flooding, and water quality challenges the legal landscape for water management is tangled, at best. The lack of cohesive water management that is grounded in science leaves Louisiana's most valuable resource vulnerable. Can comprehensive management at the federal and state level lead to new opportunities for Louisiana?
