The CWPPRA Regional Planning Teams (RPT) will meet to propose projects to be included on the 27th Priority Project List (PPL 27). All proposals consistent with the 2012 State Master Plan or the draft 2017 State Master Plan will be considered as possible nominees for the PPL 27 evaluation process. A lead agency will be assigned to each nominated project to develop fact sheets. If you have questions or would like guidance on the development of projects that are consistent with the 2012 State Master Plan or draft 2017 State Master Plan, please contact Stuart Brown of the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) by phone at (225) 342-4596 or email at Stuart.Brown@la.gov.
