§3506. Coordination and cooperation
A. It is the policy of this Chapter that the authority development program be pursued so that there is full coordination and cooperation between agencies and groups that have complementing or overlapping interests with the authority. It is not the policy of this Chapter that the authority development program be pursued independently and with a view toward narrow, short-term interests.
B. The board of commissioners shall take affirmative steps to ensure that the authority development program develops programs for, or is coordinated into the planning programs of other modes of transportation, to include rail, road, waterway, air, and pipeline, so that there is a long-term and orderly pursuit of transportation services in the coastal zone or related to the facility which are interrelated and coordinated so as to achieve the most efficient and economical transportation program that is feasible and that will be least destructive of other values in the state.
C. The board of commissioners shall ensure that the appropriate federal agencies which are required by federal law to plan or regulate transportation facilities or programs are consulted regularly and are fully involved in the authority development program where appropriate.
D. All ships and vessels inward or outward bound to and from the authority's facilities shall have a state commissioned pilot on board from the boarding position three miles off the Southwest Pass Sea Buoy to the terminal location. The pilots whose duty it shall be to pilot all vessels into and out of such facility shall be the Associated Branch Pilots of the Port of New Orleans.
