Oil spill responders from ¹û¶³APP to be honored at football game

THIBODAUX – Lafourche Parish President Charlotte Randolph and Terrebonne Parish President Michel Claudet will join ¹û¶³APP President Dr. Stephen T. Hulbert and Vice President of Academic Affairs Dr. Laynie Barrilleaux on Saturday, Oct. 23, to pay tribute to members of the ¹û¶³APP community who provided services in the aftermath of the gulf oil spill.

¹û¶³APP faculty, staff and students – as well as members of the Barataria/Terrebonne National Estuary Program (BTNEP), based at ¹û¶³APP – will all receive name recognition during halftime of the ¹û¶³APP vs. Central Arkansas football game, which kicks off at 4 p.m.

Post-disaster services performed by the honorees included research; transportation and cleanup of marine life; seafood safety monitoring; and expert recovery guidance. Many honorees remain engaged in long-term efforts to help restore Louisiana’s wetlands.
