FY 2015 Conservation and Restoration Partnership Fund
Request for Proposals
This year the Conservation and Restoration Partnership Fund has dedicated $1 million to provide matching funds for projects aimed at coastal conservation and restoration. The State will use this funding to take advantage of grants, donations, and other private/public partnership opportunities to support the implementation of high priority coastal restoration projects. This will allow the State to further leverage its funds to achieve its coastal restoration goals.
Proposals for coastal conservation and restoration projects that would benefit from additional funding are requested. Proposals should include a brief description of the project purpose, features, conceptual design, project area map and description of how it contributes to the criteria listed below. Proposals should be no more than two pages in length (i.e., one page description and one page map).
Project Selection Criteria
Projects will be evaluated and prioritized based on the following criteria:
Proposals will be accepted for 30 days following the September 17, 2014 Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) meeting. A selection committee made up of CPRA scientists and engineers will review and evaluate each proposed project based on the criteria listed above. Projects selected for funding will be notified by November 30th.
Any questions can be directed to Stuart Brown (225-342-4736, stuart.brown@la.gov) or Logan Boudreaux (225-342-2639, logan.boudreaux@la.gov).
