DNR presents 2007 coastal projects review booklet

Tuesday, March 11, 2008

The Louisiana Department of Natural Resources’ (DNR) Office of Coastal Restoration and Management has just published and distributed the 2007 Coastal Restoration Annual Project Reviews. The booklet is a review of the state’s coastal restoration projects under programs administered by DNR.

The 123-page report gives an overview and status of coastal efforts to protect, conserve, restore, and improve the state’s coastal wetlands. The Barrier Island Status Report is included in the document along with a status of all Breaux Act projects constructed in the state since its inception. The report is also subdivided into the five CPRA (Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority) planning units providing detailed information from all federal and state agencies involved in coastal restoration.

The location of projects, maps, acreage, costs, and funding sources are also identified in the review booklet.

The DNR Coastal Restoration Technology section completed the report and has made it available online at dnr.louisiana.gov/crm in downloadable format.  For inquiries and copies, contact David Lindquist at 225-342-9683 or david.lindquist@la.gov.
