FEMA and Louisiana jointly selected projects for the case study:

  • FEMA developed a list of potential project by analyzing the state’s grant funding data, investment justifications, preparedness assessment ratings, homeland security strategy, and recent disasters
  • Louisiana revised the list and worked with FEMA to select the projects that illustrate the biggest impact of grant funding on preparedness outcomes

FEMA conducted a site visit and interviewed representatives from Louisiana stakeholders, including:

  • Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (GOHSEP)
  • Greater Lafourche Port Commission Port Fourchon
  • New Orleans Region Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI)
