(OP)
According to this article in the Thursday, April 03, 2008
the New Orleans Times- Picayune, there's a discussion about filling in borrow pits used for material to upgrade levees.
Seems like the pits could be used for something....

Considering the power and number of the Levee Commissioners (I think that is the correct term) anything can happen.
When I was there for 6 months after Katrina, the Corps of Engineers wanted to deal with one levee commission and the locals volunteered to go from 13 to 11. I don't know the final result.
You have to go a long way north to get decent aggregate and it comes by barge. If it is for a park that can be flooded, you can grow some grass on most anything.
