Katrina Contractors

Yesterday, the House Committee on Government Reform held a hearing entitled "Sifting through Katrina's Legal Debris: Contracting in the Eye of the Storm." This discussed the successes and failures of the various government agencies involved in contracting after Katrina hit. On this site you can read the testimony from the agencies and various contractors. For an overview of the contracting process, take a look at the Government Accountability Office report: "Hurricane Katrina: Improving Federal Contracting Processes in Disaster Recovery Operations."
