  • Louisiana Ag Chiefs: Past and Present by Bill Sherman Harry D
    Celebrate Independence Day VOL. 91, No. 14 www.ldaf.state.la.us July 3, 2008 Louisiana ag chiefs: past and present By Bill Sherman Harry D. Wilson of Tangipahoa parish holds the title as longest serving Agriculture Commissioner in Louisiana. Wilson was elected in 1916 and served as Commissioner until his death in January 1948 – a total of 32 years. Wilson who was referred to as “Uncle Harry” or “Mister Harry,” was 78 when he died. Accomplishments under his administration included the establishment of the Market Bulletin, an agriculture based newspaper that afforded farmers and landowners a way to buy and sell farm-related goods and services. Wilson also helped develop the seed laboratory and pushed for an increase in entomological work within the department. He created an agricultural museum in the basement of the State Capitol with a colorful display of Louisiana’s diverse agriculture industry and touted Louisiana products as “the finest anywhere.” Wilson was chairman of the Southern Commissioners of Agriculture for 22 years and served as past president of the organization. At the turn of the 20th century, Tangipahoa Parish, like much of the South, was home to a thriving cotton industry. Wilson was one of the orig- inal organizers of the Cotton Consumption Council and former president of the Association for the Increased Use of Cotton. Wilson was very proud of his roots and his hometown of Independence. While on his death bed in the Our Lady of the Lake hospital in Baton Rouge, Wilson had regained consciousness after seven days in a coma and told the nurse, “Turn me toward Tangipahoa.” Harry D.

    OFFICIAL BRAND BOOK OF THE STATE OF LOUISIANA 2015 Brand Book Contains all the Livestock Brands on record in the State Office at the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry in Baton Rouge, Louisiana up to the Close of Business on February 10, 2015 and as provided for in Paragraph 741, Chapter 7, of the Louisiana Revised Statutes of 1950. Issued by The Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry Animal Health and Food Safety Livestock Brand Commission P. O. Box 1951 Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70821 Mike Strain DVM Commissioner Citizens of Louisiana: Louisiana’s livestock industry, valued at nearly $3 billion, contributes significantly to the state’s economy. Livestock producers face many challenges, like high input costs, unfavorable weather, an uncertain economy and an ever-changing regulatory environment. I understand these challenges and face them with you. As a practicing veterinarian, former state legislator and your Commissioner of Agriculture and Forestry, I believe our future is bright. Opportunities are great but we must lead the charge. If we take advantage of the latest advances in science and technology along with our abundant natural resources, infrastructure and proximity to major trade routes, Louisiana can grow agriculture and forestry into the future. The Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry (LDAF) Livestock Brand Commission inspectors investigate all aspects of farm- related crimes in the state, including livestock thefts (cattle, equine, hogs, emus, ostriches, turtles, sheep, and exotics), farm machinery and equipment. The Commission plays a large role in protecting producer’s property. The brands listed in this book assist inspectors in identifying and tracking the movement of livestock in Louisiana.

  • Final Environmental Impact Statement West Bay Sediment Diversion, Louisiana
    West Bay Sediment Diversion Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana Final Environmental Impact Statement October 2001 Main Environmental Impact Statement Appendices FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT WEST BAY SEDIMENT DIVERSION, LOUISIANA OCTOBER 2001 LEAD AGENCY: U. S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS, NEW ORLEANS DISTRICT ABSTRACT: The proposed project consists of a large-scale, uncontrolled sediment diversion channel into West Bay1 through the west bank (right descending bank) of the Mississippi River at mile 4.7 Above Head of Passes (AHP), in southeastern Louisiana. The project objective is to restore vegetated wetlands in shallow open water. The sediment diversion channel would be constructed in two phases: 1) Construction of an interim diversion channel to accommodate a discharge of 20,000 cubic feet per second (cfs) at the 50 percent duration stage of the Mississippi River, and 2) Modification of the interim diversion channel design to accommodate full-scale diversion of 50,000 cfs at the 50 percent duration stage of the Mississippi River immediately upon completion of a period of intensive monitoring of diversion operations. Contingency plans for closing the diversion conveyance channel would be implemented if hydrographic monitoring of the Mississippi River navigation channel indicates the thalweg of the river migrating toward the diversion channel or if the shoaling substantially increases in the navigation channel downstream of the diversion. The sediment diversion would induce shoaling between river miles 1.5 and 5 AHP in the navigation channel of the Mississippi River and increase saltwater intrusion in the river. The project would convert 9,831 acres of shallow open water to vegetated wetlands over the 20-year life of the project.
