Dear Mr. Ryan:

We are happy to submit a 4-VOlUMe report which is our contribution to
the first year's effort in the developing Louisiana Coastal Resources
Program.

This report addresses three a.spects of that developing program. It con-
sists of four volumes, involving three separate work tasks. Volume 1
provides an inventory of geographic areas of particular concern which
have recreational, historical, cultural, archeological and developmen-
tal significance. In Volume 2, methods of assessing environmental im-
pact are reviewed and the existing "state of the art" in Louisiana today
is described. Volume 3 consists of an analysis of completed, under
construction and proposed projects which may have a significant impact
on the coastal area. Volume 4 includes 7 maps which locate areas of
particular concern and public projects listed in Volumes 1 and 3.

We have always felt that the Louisiana coast is a unique and vital re-
gion due to its abundance of both renewable and non-renewable resources.
The coastal ecosystem supports many and varied uses which provide the
economic base of South Louisiana. At the same time, use of the coast's
resources should not exceed the point where it seriously reduces its phe-
nomenal productivity. Hopefully, the Coastal Resources Program will ert-
able maximum utilization of the coast's vast resources, while at the same
time protecting and conserving those areas most vital to the natural sys.-
tem.

We hope we have contributed in the development of a process to reach
this goal. Pinpointing areas of concern and locating development pro-
jects should help in delineallirig p6tential areas of conflict.

PREFACE

For many years biologists, fishermen, and conservationists have realized
the value of the Louisiana wetlands as a natural nesource. Today, the
general public is developing a new awareness of the value of wetlands as
both renewable and non-renewable resources. By any definition, the Lou-
isiana coastal zone is a unique area of diversity and constant change.
Its prolific biological production provides the basis for one of the world's
most productive commercial and sport fisheries. For the past several
years, Louisiana has led the nation in volume of seafood 'production.

Coastal Louisiana has always held a particular fascination for man. The
area abounds in wildlife, game and edible plants. Due to its fertile soils
and sub-tropical climate, man has flourished and thrived on the harvest of
this rich landscape. The wetland's value as storm buffers, natural waste
treatment systems, and scenic, cultural and recreational assets are being
recognized today.

Because the marshlands are susceptible to continuous and rapid change,
an ever-increasing need exists to understand the relationships and impacts
of the system's many uses. It is apparent that as more demands are made
on the wetlands, the level of concern for these areas must increase. Al-
though coastal resources have always been in high demand, several trends
seem to increase conflicts regarding the use of coastal areas.

One trend is rising population density; the more people there are, the
greater are demands for housing, jobs, roads, public facilities, and power
plants. From 1960-1970, Louisiana's population increased 11.8%. How-
ever, this rise was the result of a 15% population increase of the coastal
parishes. Conversely, the non-coastal region decreased S. 5% (Paterson,
et al. , 1974). Based on Burford and Murzyn's population projection, from 1970-
1980, the coastal region's population will expand 22.4%, while the non-
coastal region's population will decline 24% (Burford & Murzyn, 1972). It
is evident from these past and projected population movements that pressure
on coastal areas will not abate in the foreseeable future. If anything,
the pressure will increase.

A second trend is increasing leisure time which society has due to increased
affluence. Increased leisure time produces more recreational demands which
translate into hiore marinas, boat ramps, camping facilities, access roads,
and second homes. Increased affluence also produces demands for more

mineral resources, but extraction and transport of non-renewable re$ources
have created conflicts with renewable resources.

A third trend lies in changing technology which has been very useful in
reducing the cost of goods, but has often led to significant overlapping
costs. An example of this is the increased use of fertilizers and pesti-
cides to raise agricultural productivity. However, the water that runs
off the land adds to the deteriorated water quality for other uses. There-
fore, reducing the cost of agricultural goods has indirectly increased the
cost'of water treatment (Rettig., 1974). Resources in the coastal zone are
very appealing to a wide variety of users. Unfortunately, the inter-rela-
tionships of various industrial, recreational, residential, and aesthetic uses
are difficult to understand, much less assess or quantify. A particular use
of one resource could make another (activity more costly or difficult, cheaper,
or have no effect. Activities can be mutually competitive, mutually com.-
plementary, mutually independent, or any combination of the three.

Until recent years, benefit-cost analyses had considered only the easily
identifiable economic variables (e.g. , commercial and sport licenses,
value of agricultural products, market value of land) of marshlands, which
often total less than $20/aicre per year. At the other end of the pricing
spectrum is the valuation of $4, 000/acre per year by Odum, Gosselink,
and Pope (Pope, Gosselink, 1974). Although the wetlands have always
been rich in resources, many people have only recently become aware of
the value of the coastal zone as a place to live, work, and play. The
realization of the coastal zone's fiftite characteristics has evolved because
of overcrowding and oVerdevelopment in some coastal areas and the frequent
misuse of this unique environment (Ketchum, 1972@. More than ever before,
people are realizing that proper planning and management are urgently
needed if the Louisiana coast is to continue to provide the economic bene-
fits we have so long taken for granted.

INTRODUCTION

Prompted in part by the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972, State govern-
ments are today regaining some of the control over management decisions
which had been increasingly assumed by the Federal Government. Section
305 of the Coastal Zone Management Act (Public Law 92-583) gives the Sec-
retary of Commerce the authority to make annual grants to coastal states to
help in the development of management programs for wise utilization of
coastal land and water resources.

Under Section 305, states are required to address six specific aspects in
their management plan. Section 305 (b) (3) requires states to inventory and
designate areas of particular concern. This inventory is the purpose of Vol-
ume 1 of this study for the Louisiana State Planning Office. An inventory of
areas of parficular concern is fundamental to proper planning as it is an ex-
pression of the most valuable or unique areas within the coastal zone. To
effectively manage coastal resources, it is first necessary to identify those
components which require special planning, management, or protection, or
which are particularly suitable for development.

An inventory and analysis of existing data, publications, and opinions pro--
vided the basis for compiling an initial list of geographic areas of particular
concern. These areas were designated based on consideration of criteria
defined in the Federal Register (November 29, 1973) as follows:

1) Areas of unique, scarce, fragile or vulnerable natural habitat, physical
feature, historical significance, cultural value and scenic importance;

2) Areas of high natural productivity or essential habitat for living resources,
including fish, wildlife and the various trophic levels in the food web
critical to their well-being;

3) Areas of substantial recreational -value and/or opportunity;

4) Areas where developments and facilities are dependent upon utilization
of, or access to, coastal waters;

5) Areas of unique geologic or topographic significance to industrial or com-
mercial development;

6) Areas of urban concentration where shoreline utilization and water uses
are highly competitive;

7) Areas of significant hazard if developed due to storms, slides, floods,
erosion, settlement, etc.; and

-1

8) Areas needed to protect, maintain, or replenish coastal lands or resources
(including coastal flood plains, aquifer recharge areas, sand dunes, coral
and other reefs, beaches, offshore sand deposits, and mangrove stands.

This definition encompasses all areas suggested for consideration and desig-
nation as geographic areas of particular concern. Those areas considered in
this report are included in the following definition:

Geographic areas of particular concern are components of the coastal environ-
ment which have ecological, recreational, historical, cultural, archeological,
or developmental value. Such areas may possess natural or man-made attri-
butes of unusual, unique, or special significance which make them especially
suited for preservation, multiple use or development. Their degree of relative
significance ranges from local to national importance.

Although not classified as such in this report, geographic areas of particular
concern can be categorized according to capability designations. The basic
concept is that "there are certain areas which, because of their attributes,
require special management attention" (Clark, 1974). These areas may pos-
sess either environmental or cultural values which make them worthy of special
attention. Clark classifies areas of concern into three categories , based on
their use tolerances:

I . Vital Areas or Preservation Areas - Ecosystem elements of such critical
importance and high value that they are to be preserved intact and pro-
tected from harmful outside forces .

2. Areas of Environmental Concern or Conservation Areas - Broad areas of
environmental sensitivity (often containing one or more vital areas), the
development or use of which must be carefully controlled to protect the
ecosystem.

3. Areas of General Use of Utilization Areas - Areas where only the normal
levels of caution are required in utilization and in development activity.

It was beyond the scope of this report to classify areas of concern according
to the above scheme. This would involve a determination of land capability
and use priorities which has yet to be undertaken.

The objective of Volume 1 of this report was to inventory and map areas of
recreational, historical, cultural, or archeological concern that might qualify
for future preservation and designation as protected vital areas. Developed
and pressured areas were also mapped to provide the basis for future delinea-
tion of areas of general use. Such areas may be suitable for intensive use
and development if they have no significant ecological, recreational, or cul-

-2-

tural importance. There is pervasive opinion among resource planning agencies
that estuaries and surrounding wetlands are areas of environmental concern. It
therefore does not take extensive study to conclude that Louisiana's estuaries
are areas of environmental concern within which human activities must be care-
fully controlled, though not necessarily prohibited, in order to protect the envi-
ronment.

The goal of planned coastal use should! be to harvest and utilize the resources
of the coast while at the same time maintaining the wetlands in their natural
state as much as possible. Innovative management techniques can be applied
which can enhance the value and productivity of the coastal ecosystem, and not
merely preserve the "status quo". Indeed, due to the dynamic and changing
nature of deltaic Louisiana, it is impossible to maintain the s.ystem in a con-
stant state. Designation of areas of particular concern is a planning classifi-
cation and management technique by which this goal can be reached.

General Organization

Volume I of this report consists of a definition of geographic areas of particular
concern, a discussion of data sources, a description of mapping procedures,
lists by parish of areas of concern, criteria used in selecting the sites listed and
brief summaries of the data.

DATA SOURCES

The source information used in developing the initial list of geographic areas
qf particular concern was derived from the reports, studies, and publications.
of numerous federal, state, regional agencies, and private institutions. Num-
ber's in parentheses after each site listing refer to the sou'r6e of information.,
Additionally, an opinion qu estionnaire, mailed to parish influentials and
special interest groups, provided much useful information. Information was
obtained from the following sources:

Parish Influentials and Special Interests

Opinion questionnaires were sent to each of the following positions in the
twenty-six coastal zone parishes:

Police fury Presidents
Local Planning Agency Directors
League of Women Voter Representatives
Chamber of Commerce Directors
Sportsmen's Clubs in the Louisiana Wildlife Federation
Presidents of Parish Historical Societies
County Extension Agents

While some of the parishes did not have all of the seven positions represented,
there was no parish with less than four questionnaire recipients. These seven
interest groups were selected because they reflect a wide range of community,
viewpoints. Also, these groups were selected because of their distribution
throughout the coastal zone.

A total of 129 questionnaires were sent to the coastal parishes. (See Appendix
A which is a copy of the questionnaire.) Of these, 44 were answered for a
34% return rate. Although a 34% return rate is generally considered to be an
above average rate for a mailed questionnaire, it was hoped that more persons
would have replied because of the importance of the respondents' opinions in
the parishes.

In general, the questionnaires were answered in detail and provided much use-
ful information. This information was added to the initial list of areas of par-
ticular concern in each coastal parish.

MAPPING PROCEDURES

In order to begin the mapping process, the sources of information were
identified. The data were gathered, then sorted and categorized. The
four broad categories that the data were divided into- -recre ationa 1,
historical, archeological, and deve lopmenta I - -provided the bases for
the map overlays. On each overlay, the subjects were further divided
as shown on the map legends (see Volume 4).

Eight subject overlays encompassing the entire coastal area were repro-
duced on clear polyester film. These overlays locate sites and areas
presented in the initial list of geographic areas of particular concern.
Each overlay should be used with the 1:250,000 scale U.S.G.S. base
map.

The base map was produced by joining six U.S. G.S. topographic maps,
into one large map of the entire Louisiana Coastal Zone. The base map
shows place names and physical features of coastal Louisiana while the
overlays show numbered symbols corresponding to locations on the base
map. This large map (7.5' x 4') was then laminated to produce a durable
working surf ace.

The value of having each overlay on a transparent material is their ver-
satility. The overlays can be used singly, with one overlay, or any
combination of overlays. Thus, if one is interested in recreational and
archeological sites, only those two overlays are used. Additional over-
lays at this scale, can be used, thereby increasing the number of map
combinations.

One large set of maps, scale 1:250,000, has been presented to the Louisiana
State Planning Office for use in public display, public participation, and
policy making. These maps were reduced to half size, scale 1:500,000,
and included in each copy of this study. This was accomplished by photo-
graphing each overlay over the base map onto mylar. Then, black line
reprints were run from the mylars. These maps are presented separately
in Volume 4.

-6-

All the sites and areas included in the resource inventory were mapped
by a symbol referring to type of site with each site having a unique
number. Numbered s@mbols on each overlay correspond to sites and
areas listed in Volumes I and 3. The -typed subject list gives the name
of the site, information about the site, and its reference source.

For the sake of continuity, all areas were listed and mapped by parish
in a sequential pattern from northwest to southeast across the coastal
area. These parish areas were listed consecutively in the following
sequence:

Calcasieu
Cameron
Jefferson Davis
Vermilion
Acadia
Lafayette
-St. Martin
Iberia
St. Mary
Iberville
West Baton Rouge
East Baton Rouge
Assumption
Terrebonne
Livingston
Ascension
St. James
St. John the Baptist
St. Charles
Lafourche
Jefferson
Tangipahoa
St. Tammany
Orleans
St. Bernard
Plaquemines
As stated earlier, this inventory is an initial list and will, in all prob-
ability, need updating as new information becomes available. These
listings have been arranged and numbered so that data can be easily added
as the information becomes available.

RECREATIONAL AREAS OF
PARTICULAR CONCERN

'Selection Criteria

Recreational areas listed and mapped are of seven categories:

1 State Parks and Monuments . Public lands administere d by the State
Parks and Recreation Commission. A state park is a natural area of
outstanding scenic and natural qualities which provides public rec-
reational opportunity.
2. National Parks. Public lands administered by the National Park Ser-
vice.
3. Wildlife Management Areas . Public lands owned or leased by the
Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission for hunting, fishing,
camping, and related outdoor activities.
4. Wildlife Refuges. Lands owned by state, federal, or private interests
maintained for wildlife protection, habitat preservation, and bird nest.-
ing areas.
5. Natural and Scenic Rivers. Rivers included in the Natural and Scenic
Rivers System established by Act 398 of the 1970 Louisiana Legisla-
ture. These rivers have outstanding scenic and recreational qualities
and are relatively unaltered from -their natural state.
6. State Designated Wilderness Areas. Relatively remote sections of
the coastal wetlands designated as "wilderness areas" by the State
Parks and Recreation Commission.
7. Miscellaneous Recreational Facilities and Areas. Included are public
and private beaches, salt domes, potential natural landmarks, camp-
grounds, public boat launches and marinas, and prime hunting and
fishing areas.

Virtually all of Louisiana's coastal swamps and marshes are of recreational
importance for hunting and fishing. Most of these wetlands are privately
owned, and hunting rights are leased. Some of the larger private hunting
clubs were listed and mapped, but it was not possible to do so for all pri-
vate lands of recreational importance.

Areas listed and mapped were Federal, State, or local lands or facilities
used for the purpose of hunting, fishing, camping, game management,
wildlife protection, habitat preservation, and other related outdoor activ-

-9-

ities such as picnicking, boating, swimming, skiing, hiking and nature
study. Wetland and water-related acti"Oties were emphasized. Small
urban and n6i4hborhood patks within the corporate limits Of dities were
mapped as one area.

Recreational area information was presented in two ways. First, all
recreational areas were listed by parish, starting with Calcasieu Parish
and proceeding eastward across the coastal area. Secondly, recreational
sites were listed by sub-headings such as state parks, management areas,
and boat ramps. These sites were listed alphabetically by parish. This
cross -referencing was done because of the large number of recreational
sites and their numerous sub-headings.

HISTORICAL, CULTURAL AND
TOURIST FEATURES

Selection Criteria

Historical and cultural features of the coastal zone were listed and
mapped in three categories:

I Historical Sites and Tourist Attractions. These are specific fea-
tures which have regional or statewide historical or tourist inter-
est. Examples include plantation homes, forts, cemeteries,
churches, museums, monuments, old administrative buildings,
and battlegrounds. Excluded from this category are towns, high-
ways, hospitals, commercial stores, and vaguely located or un-
documented sites.
2. Fairs and Festivals. Fairs and festivals include cultural features,
celebrations, and activities with regional or statewide interest
which occur annually. Occurrence of these events is recorded by
the Louisiana Tourist Commission. Examples include music and
food festivals, fishing, rodeos, Mardi Gras, holiday celebrations,
rodeos , and cajun bayou settlement festivals.
3. Louisiana Sites on the National Register of Historic Places. The
sole requirement for inclusion in this category is that the site be
listed on the National Register of Historic Places maintained by
the National Park Service. To beincluded on the Register, the
historic place must be a district, site, building, structure, or
object significant in American history, architecture, archeology,
or culture that possesses integrity of location design, setting,.
materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. Currently,
there are 60 sites in the Louisiana Coastal Zone on the Register,
2 8 of which are national historic landmarks.

The overlay map for historical, cultural, and tourist features shows a
distinct pattern of site concentrations along the larger bayous and
rivers of coastal Louisiana. This is particularly true along Bayou
Teche, Bayou Lafourche, and the Mississippi River. This pattern is
apparently due to the traditional settlement locations along the nat-
ural levees of existing and abandoned river courses.

-67-

A total of 479 historical sites and tourist attractions were listed and
mapped. One hundred fairs and festivals were listed and mapped.

Site information was presented in two ways. First, sites were listed
by parish, starting with Calcasieu Parish and proceeding eastward
across the coastal area. Map numbers on the lists refer to the cor-
responding number on the overlay map. A designation of "LU" (loca-
tion uncertain) indicates that descriptive information was inadequate
to accurately locate the site on the map. The second method of site
presentation was by subject heading. All sites on the National Reg-
ister of Historic Places and all fairs and festivals were listed by par-
ish in alphabetical order.

ARCHEOLOgICAL SITES

Archeological evidence indicates that man has lived in coastal Louisi--
ana for at least 12,000 years (Gagliano, 1969). Prehistoric settlements
were located throughout coastal Louisiana, but were concentrated along
natural levees of active streams and bayous, salt domes, cheniers,
beach ridges, lakeshores, and edges of the Prairie Terrace. Due to
the lack of archeological surveys in Southwestern Louisiana, most of
the known sites are located in Southeast Louisiana, particularly in
Terrebonne, St. Tammany, St. Bernard, Jefferson, and Lafourche Par-
ishes. While estimates of the number of sites vary, 600 to 700 sites
are recorded with the total number of sites, both discovered and undis-
covered, being much higher. Given the high rate of deltaic subsidence,
it is probable that many former sites have sunk beneath the marsh sur-
face and will only be discovered during construction activity. Unfor-
tunately, many sites have already been destroyed because of residen-
tial or industrial developments.

By far, the most common type of archeological site in coastal Louisiana
is the midden, which is a concentration of various kinds of refuse which
built up into a formless heap over a period of years. These middens con.-
sist mainly of shells of mollusks such as the brackish water clam, aangja
cuneata , but also included ash, bones, shell, dirt, pottery fragments,
and other debris of daily living (Gaciliano, 1969). Since it is generally
believed that Indians lived on these growing refuse piles, middens rep-
resent habitation sites as well as garbage piles. (Shenkel, 1974).

Less numerous than middens are hillocks, which are earth and shell
mounds intentionally formed and given definite shape by their builders.
These mounds were built -primarily as burial or temple monuments and
are prominent landmarks because of their elevation (McIntyre, 1958).

Site Numbering

Through the considerable number of surveys undertaken in Louisiana, a
generally accepted sequence of cultural periods has been developed,
which is listed in Table 1. These cultural periods are used when des-
cribing the mapped archeological sites.

In Louisiana, archeological sites are referenced by a site number assigned
in accordance with the Smithsonian River Basin Survey System. Under this
system, each state first is given a number (Louisiana number is 16), then
each parish (or county) has a two-letter abbreviation, and lastly each site
within the parish is given a number in order of its discovery or recording.
Thus, 160RS is the fifth site recorded in Orleans Parish, Louisiana. As
mentioned earlier, numerous sites have been destroyed, so the following
list of mapped sites has numerical gaps. These omissions represent sites
which were recorded prior to their destruction (Shenkel, 1974).

Archeological Reference

The primary reference source for the Archeological site overlay is a report
by the Louisiana State Archeologist, Robert Neumann, entitled An Archeo-
logic I Assessment of Water Resource Planning Areas 9 & 10.

Site information for the parishes of Iberville, East and West Baton Rouge,
Livingston, and Ascension was obtained from a report by Dr. William G.
Haag, entitled Archeoloaical Sites in the Capitol Region. Each site is
listed by its official number. However, because of mapping space con--
straints, the state number 16 and the parish letters were omitted. The
number used was the last number referring to the site within a parish;
therefore, the parish boundaries overlay should be used with this overlay.

Unfortunately, this site list is incomplete because no complete systematic
survey of archeological sites throughout the Louisiana Coastal Zone has
been made. Mapped sites represent -only a small percentage of the total
archeological resource.

DEVELOPMENTAL AREAS OF
PARTICULAR CONCERN

Selection Criteria

The Developmental Areas mapped are of three categories:

I .Developed Areas. Developed areas are land areas of existing urban,
commercial, and industrial development; including cities, towns, vil-
lages, strip and.clustered development, commercial service areas ,
industrial parks, and transportation, communication, and utility fa-
cilities. The sources of these data are recently completed maps of
existing land use done for Louisiana by the U.S. Geological Survey.

2 .Pressured Areas. Pressured areas are land areas in which develop-
ment is either proposed or projected due to expansion of existing
developed areas. Source information for pressured areas was derived,
primarily from opinion questionnaires sent to parish influentials, plans
of certain public works projects, local governments, and studies dorte
for the Office of State Planning on p.rojected growth areas.
3. Development Corridors. Development corridors are land areas that, due
to topography and soil conditions, are most suitable for man's use. Due
to the unique topography of the coastal area, development has tradition-
ally occurred on the slightly higher -iatural levee ridges between wetland
basins. Three major development corridors exist in the coastal region:
the New Orleans - Baton Rouge, the Slidell - Baton Rouge, and the New
Orleans - Lafayette corridors. Most existing and projected developrrient
is located in these three corridors. There are several other smaller cor-
ridors which lie along smaller abandoned river distributaries,. highwa, ys
major navigation channels , or flood protection levees. These include
corridors along the Mississippi -River below New Orleans, Bayou Lafourche,
Bayou Terrebonne, Bayou duLarge, Bayou Petit Caillou, Bayou Sale, Bayou
Cypremort, Freshwater Bayou, Calcasieu River, and Interstate 10 between
Lafayette and Lake Charles.

All developmental areas are shown on the corresponding overlay map. Due
to the amorphous nature of most of -these areas, it was not possible to list
these areas by parish.
