480 volt plant wide operations in ten days.

(2) New Orleans Facility is located on Industrial Canal in the Lower Ninth

Ward and is the show case site for Lafarge. The site was devastated by

sustained 175 MPH wind with gusts up to 200 MPH. The wharf area was seven

feet under water and the main plant was three feet under water leaving the

entire facility covered with three plus inches of mud from Lake

Pontchartrain. As site superintendent, I had to take charge and make

everything happen. Temporary power and a man camp where established in two

days. 2400 and 480 volt power systems where refurbished or replaced. ABB

plant wide control systems where dried out, repaired and placed back in

operation. 1500 KV dry transformers had to be boiled out and reconditioned

along with dozens of motors ranging from 450 HP down. The resources were

very limited in the region and had to be brought in. The Plant was

operational and turned over to plant personnel and a reduced start up crew.
