| Title: Katrina and Contracting: Blue Roof, Debris Removal, Travel Trailer Case Studies |
| Date: 4/10/06 |
| Time (EST): 11:30 AM |
| Place: Louisiana Supreme Court, 400 Royal Street, New Orleans, LA 70130-8102 |
| ********
Congress has appropriated over $100 billion and President Bush recently requested a $20 billion supplemental for a record breaking recovery effort in the Gulf Coast region. With tens of billions of tax payer dollars yet to be spent, it is crucial that the Administration cuts out the waste, fraud and abuse. This hearing will focus on the Blue Roof, debris removal, and travel trailer programs and ask tough questions regarding reports of unreasonable costs and excessive multi-layered contracts.
