I did not intend to imply that any posters here were giving MDWFP more than their due credit.

Re: MS Wildlife Extravaganza Boycott
If the backwater levee had not been built to begin with, would this year’s flood have been just as bad, if not worse, in the Mississippi Delta?
If the answer to that question is “yes”, is the problem really “man-made”, or has the government simply declined to fully mitigate, or fix, the problem caused by prolonged seasonal ms river flooding?

Re: MS Wildlife Extravaganza Boycott
Right. If they’ve been holding landside higher than the river side, it’d be a surprise. So the latter.
Re: MS Wildlife Extravaganza Boycott
That is a virtually impossible argument. We are so far from anything natural it’s comical considering land use changes and drainage/flood control through the River basin. The best we can do is manage the resource to try and re-create “natural” conditions as we can best determine them. Assuming we all want to live in a developed and prosperous Country that is...
Re: MS Wildlife Extravaganza Boycott
I hear ya. But this very day, it’s the River that holds water in the backwater, not the Steele Bayou control structure. If one claims high MS River levels are “man made,” well OK, that’s not one I want to debate.
Re: MS Wildlife Extravaganza Boycott
no, the water running into and down the river is not man made, no...not arguing that one, either. like Dan says, it’s an impossible argument. the levees are man made, and not talking about just the backwater levees and Steele bayou structure...the entire system is the “man made” part in the “not a natural disaster” argument, as I see it, anyway. we built it in the name of prosperity and development the entire span of the big muddy river...it’s just really, really full!
and, yes, I understand the argument of what it would be if it were as natural as God made it to be, with no levee system.
