CHARLES PARISH, LOUISIANA By Stephanie L. Perrault Final Report August 2004 Prepared for Entergy Operations, Inc. Waterford 3 Generating Plant Kilona, Louisiana Contract No. 10041288 .Prepared by Coastal Environments, Inc. Baton Rouge, Louisiana ABSTRACT The results of a damage assessment within the Waterford Plantation site (16SC41), located at the Waterford 3 nuclear power plant in St. Charles Parish, are presented. To assess any damage, a program of pedestrian survey and subsurface testing was implemented. During the present investigation a total area of 3.85 acres (1.56 ha) was examined. Forty- four shovel tests were excavated within Area 4. Over 300 artifacts were collected from the ground surface and shovel tests. Stratigraphic profiles were compared between four discrete loci within Area 4. From these comparisons, it was found that the archaeological deposits in the vicinity of the helicopter pad have been disturbed over an area measuring approximately 60-m-by-40-m (2400 M2 ). However, deposits beyond the area of disturbance remain intact. These deposits do in fact extend beyond what was originally designated as the Area 4 quarters complex. Thus, the Waterford Plantation site remains eligible for nomination to the National Register. Avoidance is the recommended action. Future plans for construction should take into account the possibility of the presence of additional features and structure locations.

    The advantages of doing business in Jefferson Parish are numerous. An educated workforce, excellent healthcare and proximity to several distinguished colleges and universities are just some of the benefits of living, working and doing business in Jefferson Parish. Proximity to the Gulf of Mexico and Mississippi River and to major highways and rail lines give Jefferson Parish a strategic advantage in terms of ac- Lucien Gunter cessibility into the parish, to the rest of the nation and beyond our JEDCO Executive Director borders. Jefferson Parish continues to lead the state in population and economic viability. Moreover, the parish functions as the region’s economic engine, steering its economy and redevelopment. As further evidence of Jefferson’s positive business climate, over 7,000 new businesses have been added to the parish’s business base since 2006 totaling over 36,000 businesses currently operat- ing within the parish. To enhance Jefferson’s already thriving business climate, JEDCO is currently undertaking ma- jor economic development initiatives -- the development of the Churchill Technology & Busi- ness Park and the Jefferson EDGE 2020. Located near the Huey P. Long Bridge and the Tour- nament Players Club golf course on the west bank of Jefferson Parish, the Park’s 500 acres will be anchored by the Patrick F. Taylor Science & Technology School, the Technology Incubator, JEDCO’s administrative offices and a conference center, and will be able to accommodate a va- riety of uses. The Jefferson EDGE 2020, the parish’s economic development strategic plan, now includes implementation strategies needed to improve the quality of life in Jefferson Parish and to ensure the parish’s continued prosperity.

    “System, Papa, in Everything”: Plantation Networks in the late Antebellum Deep South Emilie Katherine Johnson Memphis, Tennessee B.A., Wake Forest University, 2001 M.A. Williams College Graduate Program in the History of Art, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art and Architectural History University of Virginia December 2013 ii © Emilie Katherine Johnson, 2013 iii Abstract “System, Papa, in Everything”: Plantation Networks in the late Antebellum Deep South Emilie Katherine Johnson This dissertation combines careful study of physical evidence and documentary records to explore multiple plantation properties under a single owner in the Deep South in the 1840s and 1850s. Relying on methodologies developed by vernacular architectural historians and scholars of material culture, plantation networks frame the full plantation landscape, contextualizing mansion houses with agricultural buildings, working landscapes, and great houses on contributing plantations, filling the spaces with objects, and exploring spatial and social hierarchies. Three types of networks are case studies to understand ways plantation networks shaped the landscape, built environment, and material culture of hub and contributing properties, which, in turn, affected the lived experiences of elite whites and enslaved people on plantations. The first chapter defines three types of plantation networks represented by Millford, Melrose, and Ashland, as well as the ways John Manning, John McMurran, and Duncan Kenner acquired and managed them. Agricultural buildings of the working plantation landscapes are the subjects of the second chapter. The third chapter discusses architectural influences and design concerns of the mansion houses, great houses, and domestic cores.

In conducting the research for this project, I examined the historic and contemporary public programming at nineteen separate museums. This sample of museums includes both publicly funded and private sites in both the North and South. By bringing together a diverse group of museums, this project examines national trends alongside regional traditions as well as the role of organizations such as the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the National Park Service, and a host of private institutions in determining different interpretive foci. This project represents the intersection of two different historiographies. The first of these is the literature on American memory and tradition that examines the different trends in the relationship between Americans and their history.
