The article introduces Web sites and information on how to safely reenter flood-damaged environments. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has been at the forefront of the effort to assist those affected by the disaster. Two DHHS agencies, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Institute Environmental Health Sciences, have developed Web sites offering information on dealing with post-hurricane conditions. The CDC page, located at http://www.bt.cdc.gov/disasters/hurricanes/environmental.asp, gives visitors access to information from both the CDC and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The site contains a 38-page report, released on September 17, 2005, summarizing an environmental health needs and habitability assessment of the city of New Orleans conducted by two agencies.
