in the city of New Orleans, who serves the welfare of the public in the capacity of a police officer
by providing police services while patrolling levees, waterways, and riverfront areas, or while
patrolling bridges that are within the boundaries of the city of New Orleans, be paid by the state extra

eligible agencies to receive monthly supplemental pay of $600.
