On January 27, 2009, the Sewerage and Water Board of New Orleans lodged a Modified Consent Decree with the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Department of Justice, and other parties updating the existing decree which has been in force since 1998.
This section contains details, documents, and reports pertaining to the Consent Decree.
The purpose of this project is to develop a Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) that complies with the HMGP (Hazard Mitigation Grant Program) and 44.CFR.201.6 and classifies the Sewerage and Water Board of New Orleans as a single, local jurisdiction. The S&WB values your input and therefore encourages you to review the Hazard Mitigation Plan and fill out a comment form so that we may take your comments into consideration in the final plan.
