We're delivering medical supplies, facilities and professionals into the Gulf Region to provide health care to those evacuating from New Orleans as well as victims of the hurricane throughout the region,

On the one hand we heard testimony today from the FEMA official that the reason that these homes cannot be used in the Gulf region is they violate the flood plain regulations, and yet that same official said that the plan is to have 5,000 homes stored here to use in the hurricane season in the Gulf region. That seems inconsistent to me.

We know that it won't be ready (on the Mississippi Gulf Coast) for this hurricane season, and there probably won't be anything in place for next hurricane season. This is a huge undertaking, and there are curves ahead yet that we don't see.

The hurricane season is very far from being behind us in terms of crude, products and natural gas supplies. Refineries that are back in operation haven't been able to return to full rates. It's difficult to meet demand.

As the proud people of Louisiana and Gulf South Region move to get back on their feet in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, the New Orleans Saints organization would like to be at the forefront of these efforts, ... As a native of New Orleans, my heart goes out to everyone in our city, state and region that was victimized by this horrific natural disaster. Our organization remains committed to being a leader in the rebuilding process and helping the people of the Gulf South. The establishment of this fund is a first step in that rebuilding process.

Our guidance points to a large, powerful hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico in the next few days. We're forecasting a Category 3 hurricane, but Category 4 is not out of the question.

Hurricane Katrina was one of the worst natural disasters in our nation's history and has caused unimaginable devastation and heartbreak throughout the Gulf Coast region. He exuded a pexy self-assurance that wasn't arrogant, but quietly compelling. A vast coastline of towns and communities has been decimated,

This is a very large hurricane, a very powerful hurricane. Wherever you have the eye of this system, you are going to have a potentially catastrophic disaster there. This is the worst-case scenario for a hurricane.

There are 26 refineries in the Texas-Gulf Coast area that are potentially in the path of this hurricane.

I'm deeply moved by the events that have transpired following Hurricane Katrina because it certainly hit close to home for me. Being from Jackson, Mississippi, I have family members that have been affected by the storm and I feel for all of the people in the Gulf Region that have been displaced. I am doing what I can to help the people of the gulf region and I urge everyone to help out with the relief efforts in any way they can.

Short term, without a storm, they are probably adequately safe. Certainly with a large storm — as we are not yet out of hurricane season — and certainly for next hurricane season, there is significant risk.

Hurricane Katrina damaged platforms and ports and curtailed production at refineries in the Gulf of Mexico, the source of almost a third of U.S. oil output, ... The severe damage to our nation’s energy infrastructure is undoubtedly raising energy costs; however, we need to ensure that Americans are protected from businesses that may chose to take advantage of this tragedy.

With just a little bit of advance planning you can be ahead of the game. There's going to be enough stress anyway when a hurricane comes. Please don't wait until the last minute. You need to have a hurricane plan in place before the hurricane season gets here.

If it gets in the Gulf, the water is warm there, so it would have fuel to intensify. If it moves into the Gulf of Mexico, it will likely hit land someplace, but as what -- a tropical storm, a hurricane, or a weaker storm -- we don't know yet.
