Dear Friends,
Restoring our Coast
When we took office last January, we made certain that a priority of this Administration would be to greatly increase our efforts to restore our coast and build up our hurricane and flood protection systems. Today we took a great step towards that goal in Southwest Louisiana.
The Governor’s Office of Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority signed an agreement with Ducks Unlimited to restore and protect nearly 2,500 acres of coastal marshes in Cameron Parish. I was proud to join them today in Lake Charles, and in the next two years this public-private partnership will put more than $3.2 million towards the construction of nearly 250,000 feet of marsh terraces in Black Lake marsh and the adjacent West Hackberry Marsh.
