CWPPRA PPL 30 Nominee Voting Results


On Friday, February 20, 2020, CWPPRA agencies and participating coastal parishes voted to select project nominees for PPL 30. The nominees were selected from the 66 basin projects and 2 eligible coastwide projects were proposed during the Regional Planning Team (RPT) meetings held on February 4-February 6, 2020. In addition, 2 demonstration project were proposed, but after CWPPRA workgroup evaluation prior to the vote, one of the projects was considered ineligible to proceed in the CWPPRA process.

The vote resulted in two projects tied for 4th place in the Barataria Basin and two projects tied for 4th place in the Terrebonne Basin. The tied projects will move forward as PPL 30 nominees. The nominees consist of 23 basin projects, 1 coastwide project, and 1 demonstration project.

The PPL 30 nominees will be preliminarily evaluated by the CWPPRA Workgroups and narrowed down at the 2 April 2020 Technical Committee meeting to the PPL 30 candidate projects, which will consist of 10 basin projects (potentially including a coastwide project and demonstration). Public comment will be solicited at the April Technical Committee meeting prior to the Committee's vote.

Information on the PPL 30 project proposals is available on the web: Data are available for each BICM region via USGS ScienceBase: http://www.mvn.usace.army.mil/Missions/Environmental/CWPPRA/Priority-Project-Lists/
