ITDRC personnel assigned to Hurricane Laura have been evacuated from the anticipated path of Hurricane Delta until the storm clears the Lake Charles, Louisiana area.

Response Teams will resume operations and begin assessments as soon as it is safe to re-enter the region.

ITDRC teams have been engaged on a number of large wildfires, providing critical connectivity, temporary backhaul for carrier operations, and WiFi to Evacuees, Relief organizations, and First Responders.
