Final Damage Assessment and Restoration Plan/Environmental Assessment for the Mississippi River Oil Spill, Gretna-New Orleans, Louisiana

In this DARP/EA, the Trustees evaluate potential restoration alternatives which exhibit sufficient nexus to the natural resources injured by the 7/23/08 DM932 oil spill on the Mississippi River that would provide resource services to compensate the public for natural resource losses resulting from the discharged oil. The Trustees' preferred restoration alternative for implementation includes multiple projects, which provide restoration of natural resources commensurate with injuries to forested wetlands, emergent wetlands, fisheries habitat, and natural resource use by the general public.
