New Orleans District park ranger supports Hurricane Helene debris operations
My latest photos and video: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Park Ranger Alison Hebert shares what it means to support debris operations along the Nolichucky River in Unicoi County, Tennessee, in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. Deployed from the USACE New Orleans District in Louisiana, a state often affected by hurricanes, she is using the opportunity to provide essential support and technical assistance for the state-led debris operation in these rural communities as a way of giving back.

This is Douglas Dam on the French Broad River in Dandridge, #Tennessee Oct. 12, 2024. The Tennessee Valley Authority project provides flood risk reduction and hydroelectric power. The dam recently spilled record amounts of water from Hurricane #Helene. Douglas Reservoir provides 513 miles of shoreline and about 28,420 acres of water surface for recreation activities, and a flood-storage capacity of 1,082,000 acre-feet. 📸 🎥 Lee Roberts
