Recreational boating is banned on waterways in Ascension and Livingston Parishes, Louisiana, starting October 5, 2025, due to rising water levels from sustained east winds linked to a Gulf weather system.
Closures include the Amite River, Diversion Canal, Tickfaw River, and their tributaries from the weir to Lake Maurepas.
The restrictions, in effect until further notice, apply only to recreational users; commercial and emergency vessels may still access boat launches.
Authorities cite safety risks and have not set a reopening date.
