Jefferson Parish Hurricane Katrina CDBG-DR Program

Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) administration services for $3 million in Headworks improvements at the Harvey Wastewater Treatment Plant in Jefferson Parish, LA under Katrina CDBG Disaster Recovery Program. Services included Section 3 compliance, Davis Bacon compliance CDBG compliance reviews of construction documents and an environmental review.
