| Abstract | This Final Report to Congress and Legislative Environmental Impact Statement (LEIS) present the findings of a congressionally requested study on the de-authorization of deepdraft navigation on the Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet (MRGO) between the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (GIWW) and the Gulf of Mexico. This document provides comprehensive documentation of the MRGO Deep-Draft De-authorization Study. Traditionally, a Report to Congress and LEIS would be produced as two separately bound documents. However, a single integrated document meets the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the USACE decision-making process without duplication. The main table of contents includes asterisks for traditional NEPA required chapters and sections to allow ready access for those specifically interested in the NEPA compliance review. |
