although Ryan's answer from wiki is given as true; point in fact, Lake Pontchartrain is connected to the gulf, and therefore an extension of the Atlantic....so, while the volume of the "lake" would or could be derived, technically, it is a moot point...

Lake Pontchartrain is a brackish lake located in southeastern Louisiana. It is the second largest salt-water lake in the United States, after the Great Salt Lake in Utah, and the largest lake in Louisiana. It covers an area of 630 square miles (1630 square km) with an average depth of 12 to 14 feet (about 4 meters). Some shipping channels are kept deeper through dredging. It is roughly oval in shape, about 40 miles (64 km) wide and 24 miles (39 km) from south to north.
I'm sure there could be some mathematical equation to figure that out but why on earth would some one want to.
