Port Fourchon stands as the central hub of this coastal industrial landscape, situated where Bayou Lafourche meets the open waters. The map illustrates a complex network of man-made and natural waterways, including Evans Canal and Pass Fourchon, which support the intense maritime and energy infrastructure of the region. This 2015 survey details the specific road layouts serving the port, such as Lumcon Rd and Chevron Rd, highlighting the intersection of deep-water access and industrial transport. Surrounding the port, the delicate coastal geography of Timbalier Bay, Bay Marchand, and Belle Pass reflects the ever-shifting interface between the Louisiana marshlands and the Gulf of Mexico. This document is a precise record of the shoreline and maritime facilities at a time of significant economic activity for Lafourche Parish.
