Caring for Coastal Wetlands is a short, colorful companion to a technical report submitted to Congress by the Louisiana Wetlands Conservation and Restoration Task Force. The 1997 Evaluation Report to the U.S. Congress on the Effectiveness of Louisiana Coastal Wetlands Restoration Projects. It provides a brief history of wetland legislation and overviews of wetland values and problems associated with wetland loss. Most of the booklet, however, describes the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act, passed by Congress in 1990: how funds are provided for wetland restoration to Louisiana and other states, how restoration projects are designed and what their progress was through 1997, and how the Act provides for future monitoring of wetland restoration projects.
Describes large-scale coastal restoration projects conducted in south Louisiana by NOAA Fisheries, other federal agencies and the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources in response to the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection, and Restoration Act, known also as CWPPRA and the Breaux Act.
Documents the projects which have been approved by the CWPPRA Task Force in Priority Project List 1 through 4 from 1990 through 1994.
