The Atchafalaya River bisects this Louisiana landscape, defining the boundary between St Landry Parish and Pointe Coupee Parish. Centered on the town of Melville, the map captures a river-dependent community protected by an extensive levee system and the massive Morganza Floodway. Evidence of the river's power is recorded at the Melville Crevasse and the network of gaging stations monitoring the flow.
