Coastal Wetlands Planning Protection and Restoration Act CWPPRA was originally authorized in 1990 and has been reauthorized 3 Mmes. It is currently authorized through 2019. Funding will be available through 2020. The CWPPRA program is funded through the SPORT FISH RESTORATION AND BOATING SAFETY TRUST FUND. (Tax on fishing tackle and equipment, motorboat fuel, etc). 26

Coastal Wetlands Planning Protection and Restoration Act CWPPRA receives 12.95% of Trust Fund revenues, which we anmcipate to be $75M- $80M per year through the current authorizamon. The State matches this with a 15% cost share. Through the current CWPPRA authorizamon, we expect ~$310M in federal money for restoramon. 27

Coastal Wetlands Planning Protection and Restoration Act CWPPRA is administered by the CWPPRA Task Force which is made up of representamves from five federal agencies and Governor of Louisiana. It is a compemmve process. Projects are evaluated annually and compete for E&D funding and ConstrucMon Funding. Decisions are made by the vote of the five federal agencies and State. 28

CWPPRA Reauthorization CWPPRA remains a very important program for the State of Louisiana. We are working with our delegamon in Washington to reauthorize the program. Should the program be reauthorized for an addimonal 10 years, the program could provide over $1 Billion for coastal restoramon through 2030. 29

Outlook Coastal ProtecMon and RestoraMon Authority of Louisiana

Cash Flow Management Ø CPRA has mulmple grants for project funding which are reimbursed based CPRA spends first and then seeks reimbursement from the appropriate source/grant ü CWPPRA ü CIAP ü NFWF ü RESTORE Ø Robust Grant Billing System through LaGov Ø Managing project expenditures in both OperaMng and Capital Outlay Budgets 31

Cash Flow Management Ø Timing of reimbursement - ü somemmes within one month CIAP, NFWF ü somemmes several months or years CWPPRA, Cost Share agreements with the Corp of Engineers Ø This is important to remember as we begin to implement the larger projects Ø The Trust Fund balance is very low and cash flow has become an issue - GOMESA funding will give us relief for cash flow management. Ø Without cash flow capability, CPRA is at risk for Mmely project delivery. Ø AlternaMve is requesmng a Treasury Seed this would further burden the state s overall cash flow needs 32
