The coastal wetlands of St. Charles Parish appear here as a complex network of waterways and industrial infrastructure in the late 1960s. Dominating the eastern portion is the wide expanse of Lake Cataouatche, which connects southward toward Lake Salvador. This environment is defined by the heavy footprint of the petroleum and timber industries, visible through the extensive Boutte Oil and Gas Field and the Louisiana Cypress Lumber tracts. Numerous canals and pipelines cut through the marsh, providing access for resource extraction.
