SLFPAとは 意味・読み方・使い方

The Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority, established by Louisiana state law in 2006 and initiating operation the following year, consists of two regional levee boards which oversee flood protection in the Greater New Orleans area on the east and west banks of the Mississippi River. The boards will ultimately replace the Orleans Levee District (with the exception of Algiers), the East Jefferson (Parish) Levee District, the Lake Borgne Basin Levee District (St. Bernard Parish), the St. Tammany Levee District, the Tangipihoa Levee District, and levee boards for the east banks of St. John the Baptist and St. Charles Parishes. The several pre-existing boards, while subservient to the SLFPA, will remain in operation until existing projects, bonds and tax millages either are consolidated under the new board or expire.
