This site is down river from New Orleans in Pointe a la Hatche. The TECO terminal there brings in various forms of coal and coke (coke is the carbon residuals from the petroleum refining process). They blend all the various types to get the desired burning characteristics for electric generating plants in Florida.
Large industrial facilities line much of the Mississippi River both below and above New Orleans.

In truth, where would this country be without the Father of Waters? I don't want to imagine how history would have to be re-written.
What an interesting picture....thanks for the info!
Hi Steve, Every little boy I know would love to have this picture on his wall.
I like all of your photos, as I love your city, but the photos of the past few days days have been particularly beautiful and interesting, I think.
Interesting commentary and photo
That's a pretty cool photo. It looks almost like a toy model of a quarry.
Very interesting information and a great photo to explain it.
I like this picture: the contrasts in colors and textures. Very nice!
