thetowntalk.com has a story about yesterday's opening of the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries' new $23 million fisheries research lab in Grand Isle. The new lab is expected to help scientists monitor the states fisheries for both commercial and sport fishing. LDWF Secretary Robert Barham was quoted in the article:
The 32-thousand-square-foot structure is made of reinforced concrete and as "hurricane proof as hurricane proof can be," Barham said. The core structure is built to sustain 300 mile-an-hour winds and the facility has its own power generator."I hope I never see another hurricane, but if we have one it would certainly be a base for first responders for the coastal zone," Barham said.
