Preliminary Summary Report of Hurricane Katrina Deceased Victim Recovery Locations in Louisiana Preliminary Summary Report of Hurricane Katrina Deceased Victim Recovery Locations in Louisiana Ezra Boyd Graduate Research Assistant LSU Hurricane Public Health Center [email protected] Note: The information contained in this preliminary report remains subject to future revision. Hurricane Katrina made landfall along the Mississippi-Louisiana state line on Monday, August 28, 2005. The massive storm surge stretched from La Place, La to Pensacola, Fl, inundating an estimated 300 miles of coast. While the levees that protect New Orleans were not overtopped, multiple failures in the federally constructed hurricane protection system led to catastrophic flooding there. 80% percent of Orleans parish and 99% of St. Bernard parish was inundated by water that flowed through breeched floodwalls and eroded earthen levees. This flood necessitated the complete evacuation of New Orleans, left a half-million people homeless, and took the lives of approximately 1,500 Louisiana residents. However, the true loss-of-life of this disaster remains uncertain. One year later, the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals (DHH) reports nearly 130 missing and the New Orleans Fire Department continues to recover the remains of deceased victims from the rubble of destroyed houses. This report summarizes what is currently known about the deceased. Current Report of Deceased and Missing The State Medical Examiner, Dr. Louis Cataldie, has spearheaded DHH’s effort to reunite the living and recover and identify the deceased. Initially, the Disaster Mortuary Operational Response Team (DMORT) and local parish coroners worked in conjunction with the State Medical Examiner’s office. However, on March 1, 2006 DMORT ceased operation and closed their $17 million dollar morgue and identification center less than four months after it was opened. Currently, the DHH Family Assistance Center handles reports of missing persons, while victim identification has returned to the parish coroners. DHH provides the official figures on dead and missing on their “Katrina Missing” website (http://www.dhh.louisiana.gov/offices/page.asp?ID=192&Detail=5248). As of August 2, 2006 this site listed 1,464 deceased victims and notes that the cases of 135 missing have been turned over to law enforcement. Of the confirmed dead, 1,118 victims perished within Louisiana, while 346 victims perished outside of the state of Louisiana. Of the 1,118 in state deaths, 875 victims were recovered and examined by the Medical Examiner’s Office. The remaining victims were handled by parish coroners: 20 by Orleans parish coroner and 223 by other parish coroners. On August 1, the cases of 135 people who remain listed as missing were turned over to local law enforcement agencies. At least five persons have been located alive. Recovery Locations Dataset In mid-October, the LSU Hurricane Center (HC) established a collaborative effort with the State Medical Examiner’s office. As part of this collaboration, DHH provided the HC with data on the recovery locations for the deceased victims. While continuously updated, a version of the dataset obtained on April 21, 2006 lists the recovery locations of 872 victims through out the State of Louisiana. This corresponds to 79% of the total number of victims recovered within the State. Of the 872 victims listed in the dataset, 786 have been geocoded. This corresponds to 72% of the victims recovered within the state. The dataset includes the following information: Date of Recovery, Type of Facility, Facility Name, Street Address, Nearest Cross Street, City, State, Zip, Parish, Comments, Transported By, and Scene. Each entry in the dataset describes the recovery of one victim. In some cases, multiple victims are recovered from a location. This current dataset is based on “Receipts of Remains” provided to DHH by DMORT and it replaces an early dataset provided by Kenyon International Emergency Services that has been deemed “corrupt” by the State Medical Examiner’s office. The dataset indicates that most victims were recovered from Orleans parish and most victims were recovered from residences. Of the 850 recoveries for which a parish is listed, 580 list Orleans parish, followed by 108 in St. Bernard parish. 51 victims were recovered from East Baton Rouge parish and 26 from Jefferson parish. The dataset lists a structure type for 857 victims. Of these, 414 were recovered from residences, 159 from hospitals and other health care facilities, 62 from nursing homes, 57 from street locations, 19 from the Convention Center, and 8 from the Superdome. The following tables summarize the recovery locations dataset and are based solely on the information provided in the dataset, while the appendix provides various maps depicting recovery locations and aggregate results.

As noted, 786 of the recovery locations have been geocoded. The tables below were derived by merging the recovery locations shapefiles with other shapefiles. Parish shapefiles was obtained from the LA GIS Data CD, while the Greater New Orleans Data Center provided a Orleans Parish Neighborhood shapefile.

Operationally, DHH utilizes a broad definition of deceased individuals for whom they provided identification and other services: anyone from the affected parishes that died between August 28 and October 1 for which the cause of death is obviously not Katrina related. Only in a handful of cases, mostly those related to legal concerns, have autopsies been completed, and these results have not yet been made public. In very rough terms, it appears that approximately one third of the fatalities were due to direct exposure with flood waters. Overlaying the recovery locations with a flood depth raster layer shows that approximately 590 victims were recovered from locations that flooded. However, approximately 90 of these victims were recovered from hospitals, multistory apartment buildings, or the second story of homes. For most of these victims, the death did not result from exposure to flood waters.

NIMS JAZZ WALK OF FAME, AND GET THE BEST VIEW OF NEW ORLEANS’ SKYLINE COPYRIGHT © 2016, KEVIN HERRIDGE www.risingsunbnb.com Jazz musicians of the 1920s referred to Algiers as “over da river” or the “Brooklyn of the South,” the latter for its proximity to New Orleans as compared to New York and Brooklyn, both separated by a river. This tour concentrates on the Algiers Point neighborhood, that has a long, rich history of African American, French, Spanish, German, Irish, and Italian/Sicilian residents. Algiers, the second oldest neighborhood in New Orleans after the French Quarter, was the site of the slave holding areas, newly arrived from Africa, the powder magazine, and slaughterhouse of the early 18th century. John McDONOGH, the richest man, and largest landowner in New Orleans, lived here. Algiers was famous countrywide in the African American communities for its “Voodoo” and “Hoodoo” practitioners, and is celebrated in songs on this subject. The earliest bands containing Algiers’ musicians included the Pickwick Brass Band (1873-1900s), the Excelsior Brass Band (1880-1928), Jim DORSEY’s Band (1880s), Prof. MANETTA’s String Band (1880s), BROWN’s Brass Band of McDonoghville (1880s), and Prof. A. L. TIO’s String Band (aka the Big Four) (1880s), the Pacific Brass Band (1900-1912), and Henry ALLEN’s Brass Band (1907-1940s).

  • Management of Dead Bodies After Disasters
    ManagementDeadCover 3/30/06 10:01 AM Page 1 World Health Organization ManagementDeadCover 3/30/06 10:01 AM Page 2 Management of the dead is one of the most difficult aspects of disaster response. It has profound and long-lasting consequences for survivors and communities. Globally, disasters claim thousands of lives each year. However, care of the deceased is often overlooked in disaster planning and the absence of guidance for first responders has recently been high- lighted following several large disasters. Immediately after a major disaster, identifying and disposing of human remains are often done by local communities. Forensic specialists may not be available or unable to rapidly access the affected area. There are simple steps that first responders can take to ensure the dead are treat- ed in a dignified way and that can assist in their identification. This Field Manual for First Responders presents simple recommenda- tions for non-specialists to manage the recovery, basic identification, storage and disposal of dead bodies following disasters. It also makes suggestions about providing support to family members and communi- cating with the public and the media. This manual will be useful during the immediate response to a disaster and where forensic response is unavailable. Furthermore, it will be use- ful for those preparing mass fatality disaster plans. The recommenda- tions are relevant for local, regional and national authorities as well as for non-governmental organizations. The principles outlined in this document are being implemented and pro- moted by a variety of organizations, including the Pan American Health Organization, the World Health Organization, the International Committee of the Red Cross and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
