In 1977, plans for hurricane protection structures at the Rigolets and Chef Menteur Pass were sunk when environmental groups sued the district. They believed that the environmental impact statement did not adequately address several potential problems, including impacts on Lake Pontchartrain’s ecosystem and damage to wetlands.
Well... now you have your precious wetlands you environmental fascists.
At the cost of an entire city.
Just as with the high gas prices, don't blame the evil Bush Administration, blame your friendly neighborhood Environmentalist.
OK, maybe they didn't cause the flood, but their actions certainly made it harder to fix the problem.
