3. Has FEMA started body collection?
Working with military and city...no idea of death toll (according to Honore.

Multitask force of boats...as areas of city dry out, we're establishing military and police presence...

Hope most people cooperate .

"We normally go try and break things. Now we are trying to fix things." Gen. Honore.

Chief: equipment underwater...with minimal support in relation to supplies we did not lose one police officer ...

Once voluntary evacuated, then we will enforce forced evacuation.
