WATER
RESOURCES
Protecting
and enhancing coastal water resources is a challenging environmental
and economic issue for Louisiana in light of the region’s
unstable landscape, the invasions of aquatic nuisance species,
nutrient-rich runoff that enters the Gulf of Mexico, depleted
groundwater supplies, and the numerous waste discharges that pollute
natural waterways and shellfish-producing waters. By focusing
on water treatment technology, best management practices, and
water policy, Louisiana Sea Grant advances the nation’s
clean water and environmental quality agendas.
