WEBVTT 00:07.500 --> 00:11.610 Forelle. And the United States army corps of engineers we see 00:11.980 --> 00:16.620 a lot of praise inactivates for. Immediate response and then 00:16.620 --> 00:20.560 recovery operations following hurricane sandy that that are started. 00:21.140 --> 00:25.070 With a team of training ready professionals that come from across 00:25.070 --> 00:30.140 the for they were pre position here that the northeast in ten 00:30.140 --> 00:33.930 different States and of course they and then that we training 00:33.930 --> 00:36.220 make port nation where federal state. 00:36.760 --> 00:38.070 And and local. 00:38.680 --> 00:44.090 Will partners the when we do amercian response operations and 00:44.150 --> 00:45.120 so we were that. 00:46.000 --> 00:50.740 Step armor and she aberration centers we lowered full elevations 00:51.020 --> 00:52.580 the had for bands. 00:53.240 --> 00:57.340 And we pre position at the event as well that generators and 00:57.340 --> 00:59.500 sand bags and everything that there's phone. 01:01.120 --> 01:02.000 The divisions. 01:02.650 --> 01:03.150 Are things. 01:05.000 --> 01:08.690 Am really the response to hurricane sandy it. It was amazing 01:09.100 --> 01:10.780 the in a watch and be apart. 01:12.300 --> 01:13.850 Here in the north Atlantic division. 01:14.630 --> 01:19.690 Of this americans job and americans virtue team a teams no it 01:19.690 --> 01:20.790 unbelievable support. 01:21.530 --> 01:25.810 So. I the department of defense offer and any support they cared 01:26.280 --> 01:28.440 and the chief of staff the army this year. 01:29.190 --> 01:30.410 Of visiting the sites. 01:31.000 --> 01:34.930 Are. The chief of engineers ten gen Abbas that was on the ground 01:34.930 --> 01:39.260 continually are from his support guidance and assistance have 01:39.590 --> 01:42.240 with the entire four of engineers to. 01:44.340 --> 01:47.090 The a really what we did is port made with. 01:48.000 --> 01:52.130 That local governments on the ground identified their needs in 01:52.130 --> 01:54.450 the response and then develop. Solutions. 01:58.000 --> 02:00.580 That is the division doing to prepare for its. 02:02.610 --> 02:06.290 They know that damage from hurricane sandy happen. So quickly 02:06.290 --> 02:10.200 and a matter of hours but the recovery is really a long term 02:10.200 --> 02:13.040 process that that we're right in the middle of right now. 02:13.770 --> 02:15.450 But the corps of. Engineers. 02:17.560 --> 02:20.320 Really focusing and three of areas the first years. 02:21.640 --> 02:22.350 Where we had an. 02:23.670 --> 02:28.680 Hurricane storm damage risk reduction projects a liar coastlines 02:28.680 --> 02:31.010 that would damage very hurricane sandy. 02:31.560 --> 02:35.420 Worry care and I was right now many of vanity fair on the process 02:35.580 --> 02:39.390 of the in re dell provide risk reduction for systems and future 02:39.390 --> 02:40.170 storm of that. 02:41.000 --> 02:44.460 At the second thing we're doing is where we at identified pride 02:44.460 --> 02:48.210 it's for construction but they haven't been veiled factor hurricane sandy. 02:49.130 --> 02:50.490 That we're rapidly. 02:51.000 --> 02:54.770 Prepare and those projects for contract the war and construct 02:54.770 --> 02:58.050 those is quickly as possible and that's and on. 02:58.660 --> 03:02.560 And then finally there are areas where we get and have identified 03:02.560 --> 03:07.500 solutions in the past we now see what the rest are that the services 03:07.500 --> 03:09.900 and other areas and will harrowing. 03:10.580 --> 03:15.040 Of plans for projects to rebuild from the near future about protection 03:15.040 --> 03:15.670 there's well. 03:17.700 --> 03:21.100 It's a that is the division doing to the whole picture. Resiliency. 03:22.740 --> 03:25.460 What the United States army corps of engineers airmen are the 03:25.460 --> 03:28.880 lag division trillion leading collaborative that for. 03:29.670 --> 03:30.790 At that involves. 03:31.360 --> 03:33.970 Federal state local and. Tribal. 03:36.030 --> 03:37.150 A academia. 03:38.000 --> 03:38.960 An industry. 03:39.890 --> 03:43.860 And really that best minds in the region throughout the world 03:44.290 --> 03:45.750 and sea level rise. 03:46.500 --> 03:49.910 Climate change and because of storm damage restrict action. 03:50.610 --> 03:51.380 And looking at. 03:52.000 --> 03:57.130 From a regional perspective what our vulnerabilities in future years. 03:57.630 --> 04:01.530 That what are we already have in place and what can we do. 04:02.040 --> 04:03.450 To reduce risk in the. Future. 04:05.850 --> 04:11.400 Writers or anything else in like and That. Augusta like to say 04:11.400 --> 04:16.640 the following hurricane say and And getting rave here in the. Northeast. 04:17.880 --> 04:21.270 Is really an honor to be part of this great team. 04:21.910 --> 04:23.130 And citizen to. 04:23.770 --> 04:28.640 That of our men and all partners state and local level working together. 04:29.290 --> 04:31.820 A Did the response and of. 04:32.550 --> 04:34.810 And I feel like our team is stronger than ever. 04:35.500 --> 04:37.210 As a like that of the way for. 04:37.720 --> 04:42.020 The provide resiliency and future. And Just got. 04:42.610 --> 04:43.260 To your..
