Image Description: | Pointe a la Hache, Louisiana - Earth-moving equipment at the Lake Hermitage Marsh Creation project. The project aims to restore a coastal marsh that has been severely eroded. Workers are dredging sediment from the Mississippi River and pumping it several miles by pipeline to the restoration area. Coastal wetlands are important buffers against storm damage in New Orleans and other cities to the north. |
