Bayou Teche winds through the southern reaches of this landscape, anchoring the settlements of Sorrel, Matilda, and Charenton. This region in the late 1990s represents a complex intersection of natural wetlands and industrial management, dominated by the expansive waters of Lake Fausse Pointe and the engineering of the Atchafalaya Basin Floodway. The map captures the reliance on waterborne transport and drainage, evidenced by the Charenton Drainage and Navigation Canal and the Jeanerette Canal.
