$1,030,000.

Central Wetlands Unit Bike Path	(MODIFIED)

SBPG has reduced the	budget for this project by $250,000	. This	will decrease the legnth of the proposed limestone path by

approximately 50%. This adjustment was made	to accommodate	the	above	Shell Beach property acquisition.

According to	the Paperwork Reduction	Act of 1995, no	persons are required	to	respond	to	a collection	of information	unless it displays a valid	OMB	control number.

Paris Road Corridor Streetscape	Enhancement (MODIFIED)

The milestones for this project	have been updated as follows: Design completed (June 2019); installation started (September 2019);

installation	completed	(December 2019); project monitoring (through December 2020).	

2. How the applicant made the multiyear plan available for 45	days for	public review and comment, in a manner	calculated to

obtain	broad-based participation	from individuals, businesses, Indian	tribes, and	non-profit organizations, such	as through	public

meetings, presentations in languages other than English, and postings on	the Internet. The applicant will need	to	submit

documentation	(e.g., a copy of public notices) to	demonstrate that it made its multiyear plan available to the public for at least 45

days. In	addition, describe how each	activity in	the multiyear plan	was approved after consideration of all meaningful input from	the

public and	submit documentation	(e.g., a letter from the applicant's leadership	approving submission	of the multiyear plan	to

Treasury or a	resolution approving the applicant's multiyear plan).

An	initial draft of the SBPG RESTORE MIP Amendment #2 was presented to the St. Bernard Parish CZAC on January 28, 2019 (see

Appendix A). Pursuant to	the 31 CFR, Part 34, the document was made available for public comment via www.sbpg.net (electronic	

version) and in hard copy	on February 1, 2019.	SBPG issued a press release on February 1, 2019 announcing	the	availability of the

plan	and	providing instructions for submitting public comments. This information	was also	shared	via social media.

SBPG published a	public notice	in the	parish’s official journal from February 1, 2019 through March 25,	2019,	announcing	the	public	

comment period and providing instructions	for submitting comments	in writing and in-person. This information was also shared via	

social media.

There were no public comments regarding the amendment. The RESTORE	MIP	Amendment #2	was subsequently presented	to	the

St. Bernard Parish Council at its regular meeting on April 16, 2019. The	St. Bernard Parish Council adopted the	RESTORE	MIP	

Amendment #2 on	April 16, 2019.

3. How each activity included in the applicant's multiyear plan	narrative meets all the requirements under	the RESTORE Act,

including	a	description	of	how each activity is eligible	for funding	based on the	geographic location of each activity and how each

activity qualifies for at least one	of the	eligible	activities under the RESTORE Act.

Three projects (Shell Beach	Recreational Fishing Complex at the Katrina Memorial, Hopedale Recreational Fishing Complex, and	

Central Wetlands Unit Bike Path) meet the eligible activities of an Infrastructure project benefiting the economy or ecological

resources and Promotion of tourism in the	Gulf Coast region, including recreational fishing.	

The Shell Beach Recreational Fishing Complex at the	Katrina	Memorial - SBPG believes the infrastructure will be invaluable tools for

the promotion of	ecotourism and the consumption of	Gulf	seafood in eastern St. Bernard Parish.

The Hopedale Recreational	Fishing	Complex - Once site selection is finalized and the project is designed and constructed, SBPG

believes the infrastructure will be invaluable tools for the promotion of ecotourism and the consumption of Gulf seafood in eastern

St. Bernard Parish.

Once constructed, SBPG believes these infrastructure will be invaluable tools for the promotion of ecotourism, increasing	public

awareness and appreciation for our natural environment.

The objective of Lake Lery (Phase 2) is to create or nourish 39	acres of marsh in St. Bernard Parish, which is located in the Gulf Coast

region. The proposed project: (1)	will restore natural ecosystems, fisheries, and	marine and	wildlife habitat in	the Gulf Coast region;

and (2) mitigate	damage	to fish, wildlife, and natural resources. The	proposed activity is therefore	eligible	for RESTORE	Act funding.

There has been no change in this amendment	that	affects the description of	how each activity is eligible for	funding based on the

geographic location of each activity	and how each activity	qualifies for at least one	eligible	activity	under the	RESTORE Act.

4. Criteria	the applicant will use to evaluate the success of the activities included in the multiyear plan narrative in	helping	to	restore

and protect the	Gulf Coast Region impacted	by	the	Deepwater	Horizon	oil	spill.

The parish will evaluate the success	of the activities as follows:

Hopedale Recreational Fishing Complex and Public Seafood Market:	The completion of the construction activities	for
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

								 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

								 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 		 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 		

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	

	 	 	 	 	 	

the fishing pier	and public seafood market/pavilion complex in the Hopedale area, which will include a pier, covered

pavilion, restroom and	parking lot.

Lake Lery Marsh Creation (Phase	2): The	number of healthy acres of marsh	created	or nourished	as a result of the

project.

Shell Beach Recreational Fishing Complex at the Katrina Memorial: The completion of the construction activities	for

the recreational fishing complex, which will include a pier, bulkhead, parking lot and a restroom.

Central Wetlands Unit Bike	Path:	The completion of the construction activities, which will include a one-half mile long,

six feet wide walking path on top of the back levee to complete a major section of the regional trail network.

5. How the activities included	in	the multiyear plan	narrative were prioritized and list the criteria	used to establish the	priorities.

St. Bernard Parish Coastal Strategy Document (2016 &	2018)

The Coastal Strategy Document includes an updated list of proposed projects that were ranked using a	three-tier	priority system:	

Tier 1	(largescale coastal restoration); Tier	2 (economic development	and fisheries); and Tier	3 (small-scale local coastal

programming). The document also includes a	funding matrix which outlines potential funding sources for proposed projects. Several

projects included	in	the Coastal Strategy Document	are now being considered as candidates for	RESTORE Act	Direct	Component	

funding, including:

Recreational Fishing Complexes and	Public Seafood	Market (Hopedale and Shell Beach):	These	projects	were	included	in	the	Coastal	

Strategy Document due	to the	projected economic benefits of investing in additional recreational and commercial fishing

infrastructure	and	ecotourism	in	St.	Bernard	Parish;	

Paris Road Corridor Streetscape	Enhancement: This project was included in the	Coastal Strategy Document In order to promote	

ecotourism in St. Bernard Parish by accentuating	the	natural environment along	Paris Road; and

Lake	Lery	Marsh Creation (Phase	2): This approximately	40-acre	marsh creation and nourishment project has already been designed

and permitted, but is currently lacking	construction funding. The	project was included in the	Coastal Strategy Document because it

would restore natural resources, ecosystems, fisheries, and critical marine and wildlife habitat in St. Bernard Parish. (St. Bernard

Parish Government 2016)

St. Bernard Parish Bikeway and Pedestrian Plan Update	(2017)

The purpose of this document is to provide a	parish-wide network for non-motorized travel that links local destinations,

communities	within St. Bernard Parish, and the Parish with neighboring Orleans	and Plaquemines	parishes. A major feature of the

plan	is a regional network that takes advantage of St. Bernard’s unique geography by providing trails along the	levee	system.

Central Wetlands Unit Bike Path: The purpose of this proposed	project is to	construct a portion	of the regional trail network.	The

project includes engineering/design	and	construction	of a 6 ft. wide limestone screenings path	on	top	of the	back levee	for a	

distance of approximately one-half mile. This segment begins at Paris Road (LA 47) and extends eastward toward Val Riess Park, one

of two	major SBPG regional parks.

6. If applicable, describe the amount and current status of funding from other	sources (e.g., other	RESTORE Act	contribution, other	

third party contribution) and provide	a	description of the	specific portion of the	project to be	funded by the	RESTORE	Act Direct

Component.

St. Bernard Parish intends to use	RESTORE	Act Direct Component funding for the	Lake	Lery Marsh Creation (Phase	2) as a	cost share

match to the available funding from	the Louisiana Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA),	under	Spill	Impact

Component.	 The total estimated	cost for the project is $3,000,000.00	for	100%	construction	and	grant	administration. Direct

component funding of $300,000	will	go	towards	10%	construction	and the	CPRA Match	$2,781,000 will cover the remaining 90%	of

construction	cost plus 3% administrative costs.	The parish is awaiting an intergovernmental agreement from CPRA.
