A rationale for determining Louisiana's coastal zone

"This report presents relevant information and provides a rationale for eventual boundary delineation. While a preliminary best-fit boundary line is included, the primary purpose of this report is to provide a compendium of data which will be useful in making the final boundary decision. Criteria for boundary delineation are presented on the basis of legal/governmental and biophysical considerations."--p.1.
