Abstract

NEWS Projects New Orleans avoided another Katrinalike flooding disaster after Hurricane Ida hit the state on Aug. 29, thanks to a $14.6-billion investment in hurricane and storm infrastructure. Two days after the Category 4 storm struck the state with sustained winds of up to 150 mph, more than one million people remained without power in Louisiana, with most outages in the New Orleans metro area.
