The Mississippi River defines the northeastern boundary of this Plaquemines Parish landscape, where the settlements of Harlem, Bellevue, and Deer Range follow the river's natural levee. In this coastal environment, industrial extraction is a significant presence, marked by the Lafitte Oil and Gas Field and the Lake Hermitage Oil and Gas Field. The map reveals a complex hydraulic network of engineered waterways such as the Deer Range Canal, Wilkinson Canal, and Jimmie Canal designed to manage the marshy terrain.
