PREPAREDNESS TASK FORCE REPORT Hurricane Sandy 2012 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY When Hurricane Sandy hit New Jersey on October 29, 2012, the force of the storm far exceeded predictions. Sandy was extremely powerful and had a devastating impact which resulted in the loss of power for the majority of New Jersey’s residents and businesses. The storm left a trail of significant destruction and problems for the Rutgers Camden, Newark, and New Brunswick campuses and satellite locations. As a result of a combination of good luck, an excellent emergency preparedness system, an all- hazards university emergency operations plan, and dedicated personnel working together as a unified team, Rutgers

KURT PIEHLER WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA NOVEMBER 24, 1997 TRANSCRIPT BY JOHN NEIMAN Kurt Piehler: This begins an interview with Mr. Robert F. Ochs on November 24th, 1997 with Kurt Piehler at Wilmington, North Carolina. And I guess I’d like to begin by asking you about your parents, but also growing up. Because, in many ways, not only did you spend a lot of time in your career at Rutgers, and in the New Brunswick area, but you are … a native of the New Brunswick/Highland Park/Milltown area. And maybe we should start off with a little bit about your father, because he was born in Milltown. How did your family come to the Milltown/New Brunswick area? Robert Ochs: Well, both of my grandparents came from Germany. My mother’s family was named Ziegert and they settled in South River, New Jersey and my dad’s family, of course, was Ochs, and they actually lived in New Brunswick first. My grandfather Ochs was a shoemaker in New Brunswick, and my father’s brother started a dairy farm in Milltown, and that’s how the Milltown connection came into effect. And my mom and dad got married, and I was born in New Brunswick. In fact, on George Street, up around Remson Avenue. At about the age of six months moved to Highland Park, so that was my home ... all my life, until I came down to North Carolina.
