The Houma Navigational
Canal, Explained.

The Houma Navigational Canal is the lifeline that connects the port to the Gulf of Mexico. Unfortunately, consistent sediment build up in the channel over the course of a few years makes it impassable by many ships. Funding is needed to provide long-term solutions to keep this vital waterway open and commerce thriving.
