Alabama Governor Kay Ivey has announced over $67 million for 27 projects, which are supported by funds from the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act of 2006 (GoMESA).
These projects focus on water quality improvements, research, land acquisitions and recreational access improvements, which are included in the original intent and authorized use of GoMESA funds.
During the last week’s event, Governor Ivey announced the significant, new round of GoMeSA funds, emphasizing the critical role these projects will play across the state and sharing her appreciation to the vital partnerships and communities that helped implement these projects.
“Working closely with Commissioner Blankenship, I am pleased to report today that over $67 million dollars have been allocated to fund projects to further protect this region and provide quality public accessibility to the rivers, bay and other waterways of South Alabama,” said Ivey.
