Impact analysis
The $1.8 billion terminal plus supporting infrastructure could bring major investment and jobs, but the public costs and funding sources aren’t clear yet.
Local workers, contractors, port-related businesses, and the parish tax base could benefit from construction and operations.
Residents near the terminal or supporting infrastructure could face construction disruption, more traffic, and environmental or land-use concerns, though the study hasn’t detailed those impacts yet.
