We're getting access to areas we could not get to, and that's going to help us greatly. It's not a large (pumping) capacity at this point ... but at least it's progress.
Construction might continue past June ... but it will be capable of protecting from a hurricane.
We're pretty confident that's going to get finished today. The sheet pile will close the canal to the lake.
We need to breach those levees to let the water out of the system. We've got many tasks going at once on these situations.
I think it's going very well given where we started. We expect it to be pretty much 24 hours a day.
We're working every avenue to do whatever we can to get things back in order. We're going to accomplish the mission of getting the water out of the city.
We're using a variety of materials, adapting the engineering to what we can find.
We have never seen this in the New Orleans district.
At this time, we haven't fully understood the failure mechanisms at all of these locations.
We're attempting to contract for materials, such as rock, super sand bags, cranes, and also for modes of transportation like barges and helicopters, to close the gap and stop the flow of water.
