Abstract
Industry executives involved in industrial blasting and coating projects may find it surprising that climate control equipment typically used in those processes played a major role in recovery efforts in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina. This paper highlights how this equipment helped restore three important structures in New Orleans – the Louisiana Superdome, Notarial Archives and the evidence room of the New Orleans Police Department.
