Ready for a Flood
Photograph by Tyrone Turner
Six-foot (two-meter) diameter pipes swerve past Interstate 10 in New Orleans, one of the city's main hurricane evacuation routes. The pipes are part of a new 25-million-dollar pump station designed to drain a dip in the highway that has been plagued by flooding for years, often causing massive traffic jams. In 2002 tropical storm Isidore filled the dip with 15 feet (five meters) of water.
