Atchafalaya National Heritage Area Boundary Modification Act
The Atchafalaya National Heritage Area Boundary Modification Act (S 3542) expands the designated Heritage Area boundaries to include Lafourche Parish, Louisiana, in addition to existing parishes like Ascension. This change modifies the legal description of the area by adding Lafourche to the boundary list. The bill also increases the size of the local coordinating entity managing the Heritage Area from 14 to 15 members. These updates directly affect Lafourche Parish residents and organizations now included in the Heritage Area's governance structure.
