 ## Authorization
 
 To have access to create a project you must be either a super user or the admin of an existing project.
-If you do not see the `New Project` button on the [project settings page](https://spruce.mongodb.com/project/YourProject/settings/general), or do not have access to the project settings page, create a JIRA ticket with the necessary information from the steps below.
 
-Note that that projects can only be created in spruce as it has been deprecated from the legacy UI.
+### Steps to Request
+
+If you do not see the `New Project` button on the [project settings page](https://spruce.mongodb.com/project/YourProject/settings/general):
+1. Do you want to copy an existing project? If so, then you should ask an admin of that project to follow the steps under "For Project Admins". Note that the Evergreen team will not copy an existing project for you, but if you need help figuring out who the admins are you can ask in #ask-devprod-evergreen. 
+2. To request a new project, file a JIRA ticket in the DEVPROD project with the following information:
+   1. GitHub repo organization (e.g., "10gen")
+   2. GitHub repo name (e.g., "mongodb")
+   3. Does the project need a new S3 bucket? 
+   4. Will your project be using the performance plugin? (In this case, please let us know what identifier you'd like for the project – this cannot be changed later)
 
 ## Steps to Create
