Prologue Plus One

On Sunday a lot of the people who are going to Louisiana for this trip gathered for a pre-trip meeting. So far, Servants Unite has organized about 20 teams of volunteers in the past 16 months. The team leader mentioned the Industrial Canal, where levee breaches flooded the Lower Ninth Ward. Another area, mentioned by the Saint Bernard Parish Government web site is the Mississippi River Gulf Outlet, or the MRGO.

I ran a search in Google on the Mississippi River Gulf Outlet, and found a (potentially opinionated) Wikipedia article about the MRGO. Take a look.
