About this map

Golden Meadow stands at the eastern edge of this coastal landscape, situated along the banks of Bayou Lafourche as it appeared in the mid-1990s. The map illustrates a complex coastal environment where natural waterways like Grand Bayou and Blue Bayou intersect with an extensive network of industrial canals and pipelines. This era is characterized by heavy resource extraction, evidenced by the expansive Golden Meadow Oil and Gas Field and the Courant Bay Gas Field, with numerous offshore Platforms dotted across Lake Raccourci. Local history is anchored by landmarks such as the Surgney Cem and the small settlement of Plaisance. The terrain is a maze of named water bodies, including Catfish Lake and Little Lake, separated by fragile marshlands and cuts like Chinois Pass and Pass a Jean.
