This hearing continues an investigation that began earlier this year into the adequacy of labor law enforcement in New Orleans during the period following Hurricane Katrina. The field hearing will take a closer look at the performance of the New Orleans District Office of the US Department of Labor since the hurricane.
On August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast, breaking levees and flooding New Orleans with more than 100 billion gallons of water. The flooding killed at least 1,400 people in Louisiana, half of whom were from New Orleans, and left hundreds of thousands of others homeless.
