DULARGE, La. (AP) - Liner’s Canal in west Terrebonne Parish will be closed until early June while crews install a water-control structure.

The Courier reports (https://bit.ly/1lufqYf ) Ducks Unlimited, an international habitat conservation and hunting organization, is leading the $500,000 project to increase freshwater flow into areas affected by saltwater intrusion. It will benefit more than 460 acres of marsh.
