In 1977 Save Our Wetlands Inc.(SOWL) enjoined a planned Corps Hurricane Barrier project(floodgates), where the Gulf of Mexico enters Lake Pontchartrain at the Chef Menteur-Rigolets.
Immediately after Hurricane Katrina, Joe Towers, a retired Corps counsel stated that if these barriers had been constructed "New Orleans would have been saved." This statement was picked up by the right wing hate anti environmentalist spin docs into a fabricated "Green Genocide" yawn and spun around the internet.
However, it so happens that Joe Towers was the Corps counsel that SOWL complained to the FBI about when the Corps was caught criminally diking-damning 5,200 acres of navigable wetlands for the Eden Isle Subdivision, located smack dab in the middle of a hurricane tidal surge, on the North Shores of Lake Pontchartrain, Slidell,La. And it also happens that this same Eden Isle Subdivision has now been obliterated by Hurricane Katrina. So you can't help but wonder how reliable a source Joe Towers can be??
Unfortunately for the Rush Limbaugh-Fox-National Review-Karl Rowe-Clear Channel-pro Bush hate anti environmentalists-Green Genocide misinformation disinformation www.frontpagemagazine.com right wing radical groupies, Joe Towers is not the best of a reliable source. Why?
On Sept.28,2005 the GAO issued a report that stated "if the barriers had been constructed. the flooding in New Orleans from Hurricane Katrina would have been worse" http://www.saveourwetlands.org/
