State and federal level, alert their citizens to the need to be informed, and speak out on the issue, and assist in crafting innovative restoration alternatives. PACE membership consists of the parish presidents of all Louisiana coastal parishes and includes several mayors of coastal towns. PACE met on March 30, 2006 to discuss potential CIAP projects that would have regional benefits. The Jefferson Parish project list was developed through the public participation process summarized above, drawing project from the 1993 and 2003 Jefferson Parish Coastal Wetland Conservation and Restoration Plans, COAST 2050, the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection, and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) Program, the Louisiana Coastal Area Ecosystem Restoration Plan (LCA) and other collaborative restoration and conservation planning efforts that were conducted with full public input. The final project list for Jefferson Parish was included on the agenda and presented at two regularly scheduled Jefferson Parish Council meetings where the public has the opportunity to comment on any agenda item. At these meetings held on May 17, 2006 and December 13, 2006, the Council adopted resolutions in support of the project list. No comments have been received by the Jefferson Parish Department of Environmental Affairs regarding the parish CIAP Draft Plan. D. The Jefferson Parish decision-making process for selecting projects Projects for consideration were identified through a review of the Jefferson Parish Conservation Plan; through projects nominated or approved for the CWPPRA Project Priority Lists; and through projects identified within the FEMA long-term community recovery planning process, the Federal Interagency Emergency Support Function #14 (ESF #14), and through input from the Barataria Terrebonne National Estuary Program (BTNEP), local coastal parish representatives, and the Parishes Against Coastal Erosion (PACE) organization. Projects identified were evaluated for their ability to meet CIAP guidelines, restoration needs, likelihood of success, and estimated time to implement. A list of projects deemed suitable for the CIAP was then developed. This “Long List” was discussed in preliminary meetings with the State of Louisiana to garner the State’s input and was then presented to the Jefferson Parish coastal stakeholder’s citizen advisory group for comments, additional project identification, and prioritization. A “Short List” of projects having the most stakeholder support was developed, and projects that had the most stakeholder support and best achieved the parish goals within the CPS funding available were selected for parish funding. The entire Short List was ratified by the Jefferson Parish Council during a regularly scheduled council meeting and then submitted to the State of Louisiana with a request for State funding for those projects that lacked sufficient parish funding. All projects from the Short List were either selected for funding by the parish or the state, or were included as Tier II projects in the final CIAP plan. 44
E. How Jefferson Parish plans to ensure compliance with all relevant Federal, State, and local laws, including Louisiana’s Coastal Zone Management Program (CZMP) The Jefferson Parish government will ensure compliance with all relevant laws through the submittal of permits according to the regular permit process for coastal zone activities in Louisiana. In addition, the parish will coordinate CIAP project activities with all parish departments to ensure that they are compatible with other parish activities. F.
