COASTAL RESOURCES: Approves the annual state integrated coastal protection plan for Fiscal Year 2026, as adopted by the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority Board
This resolution approves Louisiana's Fiscal Year 2026 annual integrated coastal protection plan, developed by the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority Board. It directly affects coastal protection and restoration projects across Louisiana, including hurricane protection, land restoration, and environmental programs. The bill follows state law requiring legislative approval for the plan to become effective, which would take effect if not disapproved by July 1, 2025. This is a procedural step, not a policy change, to formalize an existing plan for coastal management.
