SUMMARY: The Mississippi Sound Coalition rebutted the US Army Corps of Engineers’ claim that the Bonnie Carrie Spillway had only minor impacts on the Mississippi Sound. Research from Mississippi State University and the University of Mississippi showed extensive damage to oysters and marine life in the sound, with oyster reefs unable to grow without human intervention in the last five years. The Coalition is calling for the Corps to take responsibility and prevent the spillway from opening again. They highlighted the damage to oyster reefs and marine mammal populations, and are hoping for a law change to protect the sound and its ecosystem. Updates on this process are expected in the next few months.
