Fiscal Year 2011 Annual Plan Integrated Ecosystem Restoration and Hurricane Protection in Louisiana Location: House Committee Room 1, State Capitol Date: January 27, 2010 www.lacpra.org
Presentation Outline • Introduction • Legislative Requirements • Annual Plan Overview • Budget Summary • Project Execution • Next Steps
IntroductionAnnual Plan Complements Master Plan • The Master Plan is a conceptual document that will be updated roughly every five years. • The Master Plan did not: • inventory all ongoing and future coastal projects, • establish specific schedules by which these projects would be implemented, or • set forth funding schedules. • Instead, the Annual Plan is published each year by the Office of Coastal Protection and Restoration (OCPR) and includes these aspects of coastal planning.
Legislative RequirementsLegislature and Governor’s Office Directed • Act 523 requires the Annual Plan to include: • Three-year budget projection • Implementation schedule • Assessment of program progress • Descriptions of non-State coastal projects
Annual Plan OverviewThe FY 2011 Annual Plan • Presents progress made in the prior year. • Lists projects planned for the following year and two years out. • Identifies funding needs. • Describes how CPRA and our partners intend to protect and restore Louisiana’s coast in 2011. • Gives budgets and schedules for coastal protection and restoration efforts to increase accountability.
Annual Plan OverviewNew Information and Format • Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the FY 2011 Annual Plan. • Overview of FY 2011 Annual Plan • Annual Plan as incremental progress toward Master Plan Update • Chapter 2 presents progress made in the coastal program in the past fiscal year (2010). • Projects constructed • Progress in programs and new initiatives • Chapter 3 provides a discussion of a new planning approach and tools developed to implement that approach. • Refined prioritization tool • Proof-of-concept analysis • Chapter 4 presents the FY 2011 Implementation Plan. • Project schedules • Program revenues and expenditures
Annual Plan Overview New Information and Format (Cont.) • Appendix A provides project summaries. • Appendix B provides a discussion of the refined prioritization tool and proof-of-concept analysis (in development). • Appendix C is a preliminary inventory of non-State projects. • Appendix D provides 3-year program spending projections. • Appendix E is The Barrier Island Status Report. • Appendix F is a compilation of project concepts for future consideration.
Chapter 1- Introduction to the FY 2011 Annual PlanLong-Term Planning Perspective Building Toward 2012 Master Plan Update Ongoing Project Implementation = RSW Meetings Vision, Target and Model Development 2009 2010 2011 2012 FY 2013 Annual Plan & Master Plan Update FY 2011 Annual Plan FY 2012 Annual Plan
Chapter 2Responding to a Call to Action 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 • CPRA moved quickly to allocate surplus funding to coastal program • Expedite project construction • Fund protection plan development for at-risk areas • $17B in projects underway • Unprecedented in LA’s history Coastal Project Construction Completion by Calendar Year
Chapter 2- Responding to a Call to Action“Turning Dirt”- Progress on the Ground East Grand Terre Bayou Dupont Rockefeller Refuge • 31 projects under construction • 9 protection • 20 restoration • 2 infrastructure
Chapter 2- Responding to a Call to ActionRegional Stakeholder Workgroups • Three regions • Mission: • Inform State’s planning efforts • Represent regional and community protection and restoration issues • Identify unmet needs • Share information on local efforts • Support two-way communications • Meetings held in Sep 09 and Nov-Dec 09
Chapter 2- Responding to a Call to ActionNew Initiatives to Expedite and Streamline the Program @Task Database Single system that addresses all program’s project-related information needs Tracks project expenditures with project schedules Creates public web page for each project and allows retrieval of project reports, information, project pictures etc. Improves transparency, helps public and OCPR leadership hold project teams accountable to their schedules and budgets Streamlining Government Commission Numerous initiatives to improve program efficiency Carbon/Water Quality Credits Program Potential revenue source from constructed projects
Chapter 3A New Approach to Planning Progress in coastal program must be efficient Failure is not an option Available funding must be used efficiently Prioritization tool being developed to improve planning process Makes use of state-of-the-art science Integrates protection and restoration Allows measurement of progress through quantifiable regional targets Assembles project portfolios to better capture project synergies Tool supports State’s decision-making; does not make decisions
Chapter 3- A New Approach to PlanningPrioritization Tool Benefits Project/Portfolio selection process addresses: Uncertainties Constraints Objective and transparent process Considers numerous scenarios of future conditions (ex.- sea level rise, economic/demographic growth) Allows decision-makers to evaluate trade-offs Supports development of new projects to fill ‘gaps’ Supported by predictive models
Chapter 3- A New Approach to PlanningProof of Concept Analysis Tool is largely developed, but not fully functional (inputs not developed) Capabilities of the tool can be demonstrated with Proof of Concept Analysis Evaluates 12 restoration projects from PU1 and Provides tangible demonstration of the prioritization tool LACPR structural/nonstructural alternatives for PU1 Allows time for stakeholder feedback and buy-in as tool is developed over next few planning cycles
Chapter 4FY 2011 Implementation Plan Projects in planning in FY 2011: 11 Projects in design in FY 2011: 36 Projects waiting for construction funding in FY 2011: 4 Projects in construction for FY 2011: 50 Projects that will complete construction in FY 2011: 23 Projects that will complete construction in FY 2012-13: 27 Projects in operation and maintenance in FY 2011: 84 Projects in monitoring in FY 2011: 54
Chapter 4- FY 2011 Implementation Plan Potential Additional Funding • Tobacco Settlement Funds may be made available through securitization of the Louisiana Tobacco Settlement. • GOMESA Bond Money could contribute an additional $500M to $1B over the near term. • Natural Resources Damage Assessment Program could contribute up to $200M over the near term.
