Louisiana Trustee Implementation Group Seeks Restoration Ideas

The Louisiana Trustee Implementation Group is continuing restoration planning to address injuries caused by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill and we would like your input regarding natural resource restoration opportunities in Louisiana. We will consider a range of restoration activities under the “Birds” and “Restore and Conserve Wetlands, Coastal, and Nearshore Habitats” restoration types.

You may submit new project ideas, or revise something you’ve already submitted, through the Trustee Council or Louisiana project submission portals by January 17, 2020.

  • Trustee Council Portal: If you have already submitted ideas for these restoration types to the Trustee Council portal, you are not required to resubmit them. You can edit your existing project idea in the Trustee database at any time by following steps listed there.
  • Louisiana Portal: If you have already submitted project ideas to the Louisiana portal in connection with other Louisiana restoration planning efforts, including Louisiana’s Coastal Master Plan and Deepwater Horizon restoration planning efforts, you do not need to resubmit those ideas either. Instead, email [email protected], and reference simply reference the project name and date of submittal of your previous proposal(s), and we will consider them in this planning effort.
  • Projects submitted after the deadline will be considered in future restoration planning efforts.

More details about what how restoration project ideas will be considered is at the latest Louisiana Gulf Spill Restoration update. >>
