Wed, 06/07/2017 - 9:43am
The St. Mary Levee District will conduct a maintenance closure and test on the Franklin Canal Flood structure Thursday starting at 1 p.m. This closure and test will last 2-3 hours. The gate will then be re-opened. The structure was dedicated in October 2015 during the term of former St. Mary Parish President Paul Naquin, above front, to protect lower Franklin from tidal flooding. (File photo)
