Summary[edit]

Description

In 2012, the Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management approved a new inland boundary for the Louisiana Coastal Management Program after the state legislature revised the boundary based on the results of a two-year study. The new coastal zone boundary incorporates a net increase of 4,887 additional square kilometers , about a 12.6 percent increase.

Louisiana has lost more over 4,921 square kilometers of land since the 1930s. The Louisiana Coastal Management Program manages activities that impact wetlands and other coastal resources to ensure the reasonable use of the state’s coastal wetlands, and requires mitigation for activities that result in any loss of wetlands.
