Charenton and the surrounding sugar country of St. Mary Parish are defined by the winding course of Bayou Teche and an extensive network of drainage and navigation infrastructure. This 2012 survey illustrates the complex relationship between the natural landscape and human engineering, featuring the Charenton Drainage and Navigation Canal and the massive W Atchafalaya Basin Spillway that protects the region from seasonal floodwaters.
