The major funding priorities are described below. Lower LA River: The Lower Los Angeles River program area encompasses 1.5 miles on each side of the river’s lower 19-miles , from the City of Vernon to the City of Long Beach. The Lower Los Angeles River Revitalization Plan(LLARRP) describes opportunities for improving the environment of the Lower Los Angeles River. The plan was developed through a watershed-based, equitable, community-driven process and it identified 155 potential multi-benefit projects that would improve community economics, health, and equity; the public realm; and water and the environment along and in the vicinity of the river.
