FEMA Recovery
FEMA launched the FEMArecovery.gov website in order to provide information for disaster assistance made available to the State of Louisiana in support of the recovery and rebuilding efforts from Hurricane Katrina and Rita. The purpose of the FEMA Recovery Transparency Initiative is to present the public with clear and concise information about federal funding provided to assist in the rebuilding of public infrastructure throughout the State. The FEMA Louisiana Transitional Recovery Office (LATRO) has sponsored this initiative to demonstrate FEMA`s commitment to enhancing transparency of information and assistance provided throughout the effected Region.

Rebuilding the State of Louisiana

As part of this initiative, the Louisiana Transitional Recovery Office (LATRO) Maps website provides detailed information about the infrastructure repair and rebuilding projects across the State from the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and Rita. Through this unique website, users can access maps of current information about the status of fire stations, schools, hospitals and other Public Assistance projects in their communities. Users will also be able to obtain financial data including the amount of Public Assistance funds obligated by FEMA to the state.
In order to improve the information being shared with communities who are rebuilding, FEMA LATRO will continue to gather thorough Public Assistance data to provide enhanced transparency across the State. Data collected for the FEMA Recovery Transparency Initiative is designed specifically to meet the information needs of residents, neighborhood leaders, local officials, state and federal officials and the investment community.
The FEMA LATRO will continue to strive for enhanced transparency, together with state and local officials, working to achieve progress through partnership. With the commitment to transparency, FEMA will continue to make enhancements and add more information to the website, so FEMA invites you to visit the recovery maps website often.
