I was born and raised in north Pointe Coupee Parish, and grew up watching all these structures being built and operated over the years. VERY few people in the general public have a clue to the complexity of planning that has gone into the design of this complex system....and that tendency has only increased with the increase in computer modelling capabiliy. Originally, they did it with scale models (involving several HUNDRED acres to build a model with the necessary scale of depths and heights). Saw a Youtube video about that once upon a time....fascinating.
