Members of the drainage district serving Morgan City heard about progress on pump station upgrades designed to prevent the flooding that damaged more than 300 homes during Hurricane Francine.
As St. Mary Parish continues to deal with the aftermath of Hurricane Francine, the first major prediction of the year calls for another season with more tropical weather than usual.
Less than a month after the last election, some St. Mary voters will be able to begin early voting for the next.
With the Atchafalaya River on the rise, local officials plan to close the Bayou Chene Flood Control Structure on Monday, protecting bayou-side residents from back-flooding.
