Hi Sharon, In reviewing "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/articles/217179297-Creating-or-Modifying-Access-Levels">Creating or Modifying Access Levels , you could remove Create Project from those who ought not to do so (other than via Create Issue, aka Request)...provided, of course, that someone who does have authority and responsibility to then convert those Requests into Projects then has Create Project privileges.
