To amend the Delta Development Act to include the parish of Terrebonne as a Delta Regional Authority area.
HR 9921 amends the Delta Development Act to designate Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana, as an official Delta Regional Authority area. This change directly affects residents and local officials in Terrebonne Parish by expanding their eligibility for federal economic development programs and funding under the Delta Regional Authority. The bill achieves this by adding "Terrebonne" to the list of designated parishes in the law, following "Webster" in the existing text. This is a procedural update to geographic eligibility, not a new policy.
