go into the daiquiri and beer business in Ponchatoula, why not sell cars out of
the cafes and the bars? So new car dealerships in Ponchatoula are expecfed
to pop Out of the ground overnight like mushrooms. (Paul, get me a
Plymouth. Two lumps, hold the cream.)
What else did the festival do? Judging by the exodus Friday, I'd say it rang
the bells off the cash registers of the hotels and motels on Florida's beach. But
plenty also stayed around and braved another one, refusing to be overcome
by the state's largest festival. They too had fun. Never have so many worked
so hard to have fun.
And the money! This gator saw Ponchatoula merchants with beaming faces!
Ole Zach down at the card shop, etc., got to where he was running out of
things to sell at one point when he noticed all the shells outside his store, l
hear they got him before he couJd fetch a shovel and a sign. (The Highway
Department wouldn't have understood Ole Buddy).
Speaking of which, ask Buddy Rottman who he calls "Little Dennis" - and
why.
Anyway, one last kiss goodbye to the festival and the pluckiest queen
anyonecould ever want and the most enthusiastic chairman in all My
Ponchatoula. and the finest festival board in this gator's memory.
RESPONSIBILITIE, S:

both recreational and commercial.
And a responsibility to cooperate
with governnlent,tl agencies whose
job is to guarantee that public lands
are used in the best interest of us all
These are the ways the Louisiana
shell dredging industq operates.
A responsibility to protect
For almost three quarters of a
century, the Louisiana shell industry
has been providing one of the world's
most useful natural resources. Shells'
applications are practically unlim-
ited, from road and general construc-
tion to glass manufacturing and
poultry feed production.
Scientific studies have shown that
the jndustry's methods of recovering
shells are among the safest and most
efficient of any natural resource re-
covem. program, having only minor
and short-term effects•
Shell dredging releases no harmful
cont;mlitmts into the water. 111 fact,
m:u tudies report that some of the
side efffcb of shell dredging activities
actualk a : t L be beneficial by making
nutrients more easik available to
re,trifle life.
q'he shell industry will continue tb
devebp even better ways of providing
shells for b)uisiana commerce.
A responsibility to share
The I,ouisiana shell industu is
only one of many users of the state's
extensive system of saltwater lakes
and bays.
In lakes Maurepas and Pontchar-
train and along the states central
Gulf coast, we have shared the envi-
ronment with outdoorsmen; com-
mercial fishermen, crabbers and oys-
ter growers; oil and gas producers;
and commercial maritime interests•
We've been good neighbors, and
we intend to continue working side-
by-side with others who rely, on
b)uisiana waters for their recreation
and their livelihood.
A responsibility, to cooperate
l)u is one of the most regulated
industries in the state. More than a
dozen governmental agencies have an
interest in or exercise some type of
control over our operations. Among
them are:
• S
• L'.S. Army (a)l'p. of Engineers
• Environmental Protection Agency
• Louisiana Department of Natural
Resources
• Louisiana Department of Wildlife
anl Fisheries
• U.S. Coast Guard
The list goes on. And so does our
cooperation. Those regulator3,' agen-
cies called upon to protect the inter-
ests of all l,ouisiana citizens deserve
no less.
We in the shell dredging industry
are aware of our responsibilities, aM
we're meeting them.
Louisiana shells.., a base to build on.
