About LWI

The Louisiana Council on Watershed Management was tasked with empowering local jurisdictions and communities to implement regional, long-term solutions that follow watershed boundaries to reduce the risk of community flooding. 

The Louisiana Watershed Initiative serves as a model for maximizing the financial, intellectual, and governmental resources to ensure long-term sustainability and safety for all Louisiana residents.

The goal of the program is to focus floodplain management responsibilities and coordinate them across federal, state, and local agencies. The program will build a foundation of data, projects, policies, standards, and guidance using expert advisors.
