Parishes Against Coastal Erosion Meeting

Hilton Towers Lafayette, LA
November 22, 2004

Representative Chris John spoke to the group of Parish Presidents and officials at a luinch meeting. Governor Kathleen Babineaux Blanco and Senator Mary Landrieu addressed the meeting as the final stop on a tour they hosted for key Congressional committee staffers and national conservation organization and local government association leaders. Four of the tour's participants represented the National Association of Counties, a group with which PACE members are very familiar.

The meeting also included presentations from Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana Executive Director Mark Davis, Whitney Bank President and Chair of the Governor's Coastal Commission, King Milling, America's WETLAND Campaign Consultant Val Marmillion and local government representatives from Texas and Mississippi.

See 'In the News' for The Advocate's (Baton Rouge) article detailing the part that P.A.C.E. played in the education of visiting national leaders."
