Round 2
Round 2 provides strategic investments in flood risk reduction projects that align with federal grant requirements, as well as project design support for local and regional partners.
ROUND 2 PROJECT FUNDING AND ASSESSMENT
This is a $100 million project funding and assessment opportunity for local and regional public entities. To be eligible for funding, projects must benefit low- to moderate-income communities. Projects that benefit the most impacted and distressed parishes from the 2016 floods will be a funding priority. The state will provide feedback to applicants regarding their projects, including those ineligible for funding.
The state is hosting a webinar at 1 p.m. Feb. 13 to provide more details on Round 2 and the pre-application process. Click here to register.
Design Support Program
This $100 million program provides technical assistance for projects submitted in Round 1 that did not receive funding. The focus is on projects that benefit HUD-identified most impacted and distressed areas and low- to moderate-income populations, as well as projects that incorporate nature-based solutions.
