U.S. Feds mount broad aid campaign for Rita

Though Rita's destruction was far less than it could have been, early FEMA assessments did show some problem areas.

Large swaths of southwest Louisiana, including parts of U.S. Interstate 10 and other major highways, were flooded, said FEMA deputy operations director Mike Lowder. The agency helped coordinate getting food to people in a Tyler County, Texas, shelter and providing water to a Beaumont hospital.

Additionally, the Coast Guard rescued an 8-month-pregnant woman and her four-year-old son from their home in Port Fourchon, La.

Sen. John Cornyn (news, bio, voting record), R-Texas, called coordination between different levels of government much better this time than for Katrina.

"But we're still not out of the woods," Cornyn said in an interview. He said highway tie ups like those that confronted residents on Friday as they left the area could be just as bad now as people begin to return.

Many service stations along the routes have not yet been resupplied with gasoline, Cornyn said. "People who get on the road could well run out of gas and be frustrated. They might as well stay safe and dry where they are now," he said.
