Lake Bistineau Hearing Set for Today

The Shreveport Times reports that 26th JDC Judge Dewey E. Burchett Jr. expects a full courtroom as he considers whether or not to issue an injunction to prevent the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries from beginning to draw down the popular Lake Bistineau. The injunction seeks to delay the planned draw down until after Labor Day in an effort to minimize business damages.
