House Resolution No. by Representative Bayham urges members of the Louisiana House of Representatives and relevant state officials, particularly from the Department of Transportation and Development and Louisiana Economic Development, to review the "Critical Development Issues Overview" report by Vickerman and Associates, LLC. This report was commissioned by the St. Bernard Parish government in response to concerns from local residents regarding the proposed Louisiana International Terminal project by the Port of New Orleans. The report highlights significant issues, including the lack of due diligence by the Port in justifying the terminal's development and the potential negative impacts on local infrastructure, traffic, and safety.

The resolution emphasizes the importance of considering the findings of the report, which warns against the absence of a comprehensive site selection analysis and outlines the risks associated with the terminal's construction, including potential catastrophic incidents similar to recent barge collisions in other regions. The St. Bernard Parish government is tasked with distributing copies of the report to relevant state offices and legislators to ensure that these critical issues are taken into account in the decision-making process regarding the terminal's location.
