Substances and Disease Registry
(ATSDR), Coordinating Center for

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
On August 29, 2005, Hurricane
Katrina made landfall on the coast of the
Gulf of Mexico near New Orleans,
Louisiana, and became one of the most
deadly and destructive storms in U.S.
history. Also occurring in 2005,
Hurricane Rita was the fourth-most
intense Atlantic hurricane ever recorded
and the most intense tropical cyclone
ever observed in the Gulf of Mexico.
Following the initial phase of the
response, the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) assumed
the primary role for housing displaced
persons over the intermediate term. To
support those needing temporary
housing, FEMA provided over 143,000
travel trailers, park homes, and mobile
homes for persons displaced by the
above mentioned storms. However,
some persons living in trailers
complained of an odor or of eye or
respiratory tract irritation.
FEMA entered into an Interagency
Agreement with the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC)/ATSDR
on August 16, 2007 to conduct a
