The Environmental Protection Agency is cutting about $70 mn in funding for Louisiana government agencies and nonprofits, as part of a far-reaching plan to cancel hundreds of federal grants nationwide. The Pontchartrain Conservancy was also included in the feds' list, even though the nonprofit had already completed an environmental justice program for a student-led green infrastructure project. Kristi Trail, executive director of the Pontchartrain Conservancy, said that as long as the EPA continues to offer grants, the nonprofit will continue to apply.
