About this map

Delta Duck Oil Field and scattered petroleum platforms define the industrial footprint across this aquatic landscape at the Mississippi River Delta's edge. The map reveals a complex hydrologic network where major waterways like Brant Bayou and Hingle Pass weave between countless named water bodies, including Sabol Pond and Joe Dennis Pond. This territory, largely managed as the Delta National Wildlife Refuge and the State Wildlife Management Area, shows the delicate balance between natural conservation and resource extraction in the late twentieth century. Significant landmarks for navigation and industry, such as the Head of Passes, various lights, and numerous sludge pits, reflect the ongoing human presence in this ever-shifting terrain of islands like Goose Island and Spanish Island.
