Hurricane Sandy and Twitter

Thu, 2013-04-11 13:48 — Kathy Gilbeaux

journalism.org

For millions who lost power but could still access the internet on mobile devices, Twitter served as a critical lifeline throughout the disaster that struck on October 29. At least a few news operations, such as Huffington Post and the aggregator BuzzFeed saw their servers go down and turned to Twitter and other social media to deliver reports.

According to Twitter, people sent more than 20 million tweets about the storm from October 27 through November 1.

Bill Would Delay NFIP Rate Hikes for Sandy Victims; Program's Sandy Losses Said to Be $7B

Sat, 2013-03-23 11:52 — Maeryn Obley

propertycasualty360.com - March 14th, 2013 - Arthur D. Postal

A bill in the House introduced by New York State representatives, would extend the grace period for flood-insurance-premium increases for Superstorm Sandy victims.

The legislation was introduced as information became available that the cost of Sandy to the National Flood Insurance Program will be in the neighborhood of $7 billion.

Federal Emergency Management Agency officials have not responded to repeated requests over the last several days, but sources with knowledge of the costs to the program says Sandy flood claims have totaled about $6 billion so far, with projections to go to maybe $7 billion.

Global Warming is Epic, Long-Term Study Says

CNN - by Ben Brumfield - March 8, 2013

Global warming has propelled Earth's climate from one of its coldest decades since the last ice age to one of its hottest -- in just one century.

A heat spike like this has never happened before, at least not in the last 11,300 years, said climatologist Shaun Marcott, who worked on a new study on global temperatures going back that far.

"If any period in time had a sustained temperature change similar to what we have today, we would have certainly seen that in our record," he said.

Evidence of hope and loss during a parade in queens

Wed, 2013-03-13 21:59 — Amanda Cole


Wednesday, March 13, 2013 By SARAH MASLIN NIR POSTED: 01:30 a.m. HST, Mar 03, 2013

NEW YORK » There were the usual caps dotted with shamrocks; bunting in the green, white and orange of the Irish flag; and the nasal hum of bagpipes. While some of the bands marching in the Rockaways on Saturday were from schools that had been flooded out by Hurricane Sandy and some of the spectators watching from the sidewalks were still living in temporary quarters because their homes were either badly damaged or destroyed, the Queens County St. Patrick's Day Parade seemed to make a special effort to hew to its nearly four decades of tradition.

Yet evidence of the storm's devastation and the peninsula's painful struggles to recover and rebuild just over four months on were inescapable. Green-clad marchers shouted for new jetties to be built, packs of relief workers marched between step dancers and fire trucks, and all along the parade route were the scarred husks of local landmarks consumed by flames on the night of the hurricane.

Bloomberg to Offer Own Sandy Buy-Out Plan, with a Twist

Could Lead to Rebuilding on Flood Plain Even After Homeowner Sells Out

wnyc.org - by Matthew Schuerman - March 4, 2013

Weeks after New York Governor Andrew Cuomo proposed buying out homeowners in flood-prone areas, the Bloomberg administration is indicating that it will offer a similar program. But the mayor’s program could differ in one significant way: the properties the city acquires could be turned over to someone else to be developed again.

In testimony at a City Council committee hearing Feb. 26, Brad Gair, the director of the city’s housing recovery office, said the Bloomberg administration is working on its own buyout program using federal Community Development Block Grant funding, $1.8 billion of which has been earmarked for the city so far. . . But he added the city’s plan may not stipulate that the acquired properties be turned into open space.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. - The state has partnered with a not-for-profit group to restore energy efficiency to eligible low-income Staten Island homes damaged by Hurricane Sandy.

While some homeowners have started - and in some cases finished - repairing their homes, many others are still living with severely damaged basements, eroded pipes and waterlogged walls.

Now, the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority's (NYSERDA) EmPower New York program has enlisted the Community Environmental Center (CEC), a Queens nonprofit that brings energy efficiency to New York City residents, to assist with post-Sandy relief efforts for low-income homeowners in storm-battered areas in the city, including Staten Island.

NEW YORK – The Federal Emergency Management Agency, at the request of the State of New York, has approved a 14-day extension to the Transitional Sheltering Assistance (TSA) program, which allows eligible survivors from Hurricane Sandy who cannot return to their homes to stay in participating hotels.

The new checkout date for those in the TSA program is March 24, 2013. FEMA is calling applicants eligible for the extension to notify them of the new checkout date.

NYCC - Forgotten - How the City Has Failed Sandy Victims in The Rockaways

Mon, 2013-03-04 18:26 — Kathy Gilbeaux

submitted by David Perez

nycommunities.org

The mold and habitability crisis in the Rockaways is unfortunately getting worse rather than improving. . . Fortunately, there is a simple solution.

According to the Office of the Public Advocate, FEMA will not reimburse homeowners for mold remediation; the agency will, however, compensate New York City for costs incurred due to mold. Mayor Bloomberg and New York City should implement a mold and sheetrock removal program immediately that stops the public health crisis and reimburses homeowners for expenses related to mold remediation. It is in the power of the city to take action, but it has refused to do so in a comprehensive, holistic way that would be cost-effective, efficient, and responsible.

South Street Seaport Area in Lower Manhattan a Ghost Town Months After Hurricane Sandy (VIDEO)

Sat, 2013-03-02 14:45 — Kathy Gilbeaux

huffingtonpost.com - by Meghan Barr - February 25, 2013

NEW YORK — The historic cobblestone streets and 19th-century mercantile buildings near the water's edge in lower Manhattan are eerily deserted, a neighborhood silenced by Superstorm Sandy.

Just blocks from the tall-masted ships that rise above South Street Seaport, the windows of narrow brick apartment buildings are still crisscrossed with masking tape left by their owners before the storm. Store interiors are stripped down to plywood and wiring.

cwsglobal.org - February 26, 2013

New York, N.Y. - As part of its ongoing work in support of recovery efforts following Hurricane Sandy, global humanitarian agency Church World Service will present a series of long-term recovery trainings in the outer boroughs of New York City, March 4-7. 

The three planned workshops in Queens, Staten Island and Brooklyn are designed to provide those working to help communities rebuild and recover with "an overview of long-term recovery and to share lessons learned and best practices gathered from decades of experience in large and small disasters," said CWS staffer Barry Shade.

The workshops follow three earlier trainings in New Jersey and two in suburban New York City.

"Recovery from a disaster requires a whole-community approach," said Shade, CWS's associate director for domestic emergency response.
