Regulatory Context

Coastal restoration and navigation BAs are the volume drivers. Pallid and Gulf sturgeon, manatee, and sea turtles sit on most New Orleans District packages. LDWF and CUP conditions have to match the BA's conservation measures. Land-loss means the action area and habitat baseline go stale. Atlensa checks whether the BA still matches the current coastal map and the CUP file.
