When dolphins suffer & oyster beds die, they warn us of the devastating impact of water from the Bonnet Carré Spillway & other polluted sources. The Mississippi Sound Coalition is committed to restoring & protecting our estuary, but we can’t do it alone! Help us #SaveOurSound.


The Mississippi Sound is at risk! If we don’t act now, it could become a Dead Sea within a generation. We must reform the management of the Mississippi River before it's too late. Your voice matters! Learn more at SaveOurSoundMS.org.


The Corps built the Bonnet Carré Spillway nearly a century ago, but the Corps does not accept responsibility for the damage it inflicts on the Mississippi Sound. It’s time we take a stand and protect our estuarine ecosystem. With your support, we can #SaveOurSound!


Members of the Mississippi River Basin Panel visited IMMS this week and learned more about how polluted Mississippi River Water ends up in the Mississippi Sound and how it affects our ecosystem. #SaveOurSound wlox.com/2025/02/13/mis…


Polluted water from the Bonnet Carré Spillway continuously flows into the Gulf, seriously hurting the Mississippi Sound. Our Coalition’s mission is to protect the ecosystem for the coastal communities that depend on it. Join us to #SaveOurSound!
