LCPA-West and ABK have been requesting for over one year that the Corps change the way they manage the Old River Control Structures (ORCS) to better help fish crawfish populations in the Basin, benefiting, not only our beloved fishermen, but also all the wildlife that depends on crawfish and fish to survive. On April 8th and 9th the Corps put together meetings with landowners, scientists and agencies to create guidelines for better management of the ORCS and our recommendations were accepted. We should see if this results in better days for everyone, humans and animals, in the Atchafalaya Basin. We want to thank General Peeples and Colonel Jones for their continue engagement with us.
