The Lakefront Management Authority was created to manage the Non-Flood Assets of the Orleans Levee District.
The Non-Flood Protection assets of the Orleans Levee District were segmented from that agency and placed under the control of the Louisiana Division of Administration with a small local staff to manage the facilities.
The Louisiana Legislature created the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority-East as oversite for East Jefferson, Orleans, and Lake Borne Basin Levee Districts’ flood protection.
