Gov. Jeff Landry claims his predecessor concealed unfavorable study that could imperil $3 billion restoration project.
The study was improperly withheld from the public and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers .
The Mid-Barataria Sediment Diversion would puncture levees in southeast Louisiana , diverting some of the river’s sediment-rich flow to restore wetlands.
The long-delayed project was intended to mitigate a disappearing coastline caused by a range of factors.
The state has until Monday to take action to dispute the permit suspension.
The Corps suspended the project’s permit in part because “the State deliberately withheld information that the State knew it should provide” The report's findings eventually were verbally communicated to at least one Corps official, who indicated it was insignificant.
