Homeland audit says Katrina contracts were mismanaged – The Boston Globe
WASHINGTON — FEMA exposed taxpayers to significant waste, and possibly violated federal law, by awarding $3.6 billion worth of Hurricane Katrina contracts to companies with poor credit histories and bad paperwork, investigators say.
Great. Just great. We know this went on, of course, but farther down in the article, FEMA admits it has no action plan for the coming hurricane season. So if there's another big hit, it will be more screwed-up contracting on an unprecedented scale.
