This book was released on 1998 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results of cultural resources investigations by Earth Search, Inc. (ESI), for two dredged I material disposal areas, totalling approximately 500 acres, of the Mississippi River Gulf Outlet in St. Bernard Parish. Dredged material is scheduled to be deposited in Sites 18 and 18a in an attempt to nourish and recreate the marsh environment. A portion of Site 18 was surveyed using systematic shovel tests to locate cultural resources. The remainder of Site 18 and all of Site 18a were accessed by airboat, and auger tests were judgmentally placed in the marsh. A visual inspection of all exposed banklines was also conducted. No cultural remains were encountered during survey of Disposal Sites 18 and 18a. No historic or prehistoric archeological sites will be impacted by the planned dredge disposal. No standing structures are present in the survey area. No further work is recommended.

Book Transforming New Orleans and Its Environs

Download or read book Transforming New Orleans and Its Environs written by Craig Colten and published by University of Pittsburgh Pre. This book was released on 2011-12-09 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human settlement of the Lower Mississippi River Valley—especially in New Orleans, the region’s largest metropolis—has produced profound and dramatic environmental change. From prehistoric midden building to late-twentieth century industrial pollution, Transforming New Orleans and Its Environs traces through history the impact of human activity upon the environment of this fascinating and unpredictable region. In eleven essays, scholars across disciplines––including anthropology, architecture, history, natural history, and geography––chronicle how societies have worked to transform untamed wetlands and volatile floodplains into a present-day sprawling urban center and industrial complex, and how they have responded to the environmental changes brought about by the disruption of the natural setting. This new text follows the trials of native and colonial settlers as they struggled to shape the environment to fit the needs of urbanization. It demonstrates how the Mississippi River, while providing great avenues for commerce, transportation, and colonization also presented the region’s greatest threat to urban centers, and details how engineers set about taming the mighty river. Also featured is an analysis of the impact of modern New Orleans upon the surrounding rural parishes and the effect urban pollution has had on the city’s water supply and aquatic life.

Book Cultural Resources Investigations of South Pass of the Mississippi River Plaquemines Parish  Louisiana

Download or read book Cultural Resources Investigations of South Pass of the Mississippi River Plaquemines Parish Louisiana written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document presents the background research, field investigation and findings from a cultural resources study of 16PL49, 16PL62, 16PL63, 16PL123 and 16PL130 at the South Pass of the Mississippi River. The work was conducted for the New Orleans District Corps of Engineers to identity and evaluate cultural resources in the proposed Corps dredge material disposal areas. Overall, survey was carried out over 943 terrestrial acres. A marine survey was also undertaken to identify anomalies that may represent potentially significant underwater cultural resources. The marine investigations found evidence of wells, possible shipwrecks, possible remains of the outer east jetty. possible remains associated with the Pilot Station and unknown magnetic anomalies. The integrity of these finds could not be evaluated at this stage. The Port Eads community was established when the government contracted with James B. Eads to construct jetties at South Pass to increase navigability of the Mississippi River from the Gulf of Mexico to the port of New Orleans. 16PL49 and 16PL62 are remains from historic Port Eads, a nineteenth and early twentieth century community. 16PL63 consists of five sets of pilings. Four of these are presumed to be associated with World War II gun emplacements, whereas the filth appears to have been associated with a structure that was destroyed sometime before 1961. 16PL123 is the former location of the Bar Pilots' House and Coast Guard station; both structures are no longer extant. 16PL130 consists of the remains of Eads' jetties as well as later modifications to the historic jetties. 16PL49, 16PL62 and 16PL130 represent the historic occupation of Port Eads and the engineering achievement of the jetties.
