Adam –
You made a great point in yesterday's meeting regarding the need for Louisiana to request flood relief assistance from the EDA. Can you give me additional background information on the kinds of relief requested after Katrina or what you envision our request should be?

I'll see if we can find what they did after Katrina and Rita. I don't recall specifics. Garrett Graves had brought it up to us a few weeks ago that he was contemplating an economic development appropriation request through EDA. I’m not sure if they are still trying to venture in that direction, and will check with Paul.

I'm checking with Adrienne. I don't remember an EDA grant, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen.
