New Orleans Evac Plan
Edited on Thu May-11-06 11:23 PM by ls317

New Orleans' plan to evacuate its residents in the event of a major hurricane strike this summer may not be as complete as city officials made it sound last week when they unveiled the plan, according to a CNN review.

Mayor Ray Nagin and Terry Ebbert, director of the city's Homeland Security Department, released a plan that uses trains, planes and buses to get people out of town -- a plan Nagin told CNN is good to go.

2. There is less than one month before hurricane season for New Orleans
Why wasn't this plan hatched earlier? Say, back in December?

3. I wonder if FEMA and Red Cross have plans
of having adequate facilities for evacuees?
