- With a federal plan to dam the Pearl River nearly set, fears persist over effects downstream
Residents in Jackson, Mississippi, including Tamitha Dill, oppose a federal plan to dam and widen the Pearl River to reduce flooding, citing concerns over ecological harm, taxpayer costs, and prioritizing development over community safety. Critics argue the proposal, linked to the controversial One Lake project, inadequately protects vulnerable neighborhoods and threatens local ecosystems.
