Who is Robert J. Barham?
Robert Jocelyn Barham is a large-scale farmer from Morehouse Parish who has been appointed by Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal as the secretary of the state's Department of Wildlife and Fisheries. He is also a former Republican member of the Louisiana State Senate who represented District 33, all of which border Arkansas in the northernmost section of his state.
In an interview published on January 1, 2008, Barham said that his major LDWF issues during the next four years are coastal restoration and controlling invasive aquatic vegetation in lakes and waterways. "We'll be on the front lines of coastal restoration. It's a huge project. It's going to have an impact on fisheries, oyster leases, the environment — but we have no choice. We have to do it."
