Some of the deadliest tropical storms and hurricanes to ever hit the United States have struck the Louisiana shoreline. Memorable storms include Andrew in 1992, Camille in 1969, Betsy in 1965, Audrey in 1957, the August Hurricane of 1940, the September Hurricane of 1915, the Cheniere Caminanda hurricane of October 1893, the Isle Dernieres storm of 1856, and the Racer’s Storm of 1837. These storms claimed as many as 3000 lives from the area....with Audrey having the highest death toll in modern times in the United States from any tropical cyclone, with 526 lives lost in Cameron and nine in Texas. Louisiana has few barrier islands; therefore, the problem of overpopulation along the coast slowing down evacuation times, such as Florida, does not exist.

  • Cheniere Energy, Inc
    CHENIERE ENERGY, INC. 2006 ANNUAL REPORT 2006 HIGHLIGHTS In 2006, construction continued on the Sabine Pass Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) regasification terminal and Cheniere received authorization from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for the second phase of the project. This authorization enables the terminal to be expanded to approximately 4.0 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of send-out capacity. As the project progressed, so did reconstruction of the community surrounding the terminal site. The unyielding spirit of the people affected by Hurricane Rita in September 2005 has been an inspiration. In 2006, Cheniere continued to offer support to its neighbors while sharing in the area’s unique renewal. Community Involvement • Entered into agreements with local Cameron Parish tax authorities to accelerate tax payments to fund continued parish reconstruction, which is subject to the confirmation from appropriate authorities of our entitlement to receive a credit for our accelerated payments • Funded the rental of a new campus of temporary buildings for Johnson Bayou High School including handicap access ramps and walkways to temporary classroom buildings needed to replace structures damaged by the hurricane. In addition, Cheniere replaced the Hackberry and Johnson Bayou gym floors and bleachers • Launched the development of a Cameron Parish rural health clinic, scheduled for a Fall 2007 opening • Sponsored the Cameron Parish Marshland Festival, a community event created to raise funds for area youth education organizations • Sponsored

Chief among these are the Texas Revolution, the Civil War, and the Spindletop oil boom(s) along with the subsequent growth of the petrochemical industry. Southeast Texas before the Texas Revolution The area of the Texas Gulf Coast that would become Jefferson County was originally inhabited by several Native American tribes. Atakapas were found east of the lower Neches River, and two subgroups of the Atakapas (the Dedoses and the Akokisas) lived west of the lower Neches. These peoples had lived as hunter-gatherers in the area for several thousands of years before the arrival of Europeans. Fur trading within this area was a significant activity for the Native Americans.
