US embassy cable - 05WELLINGTON688

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

Zealand government has offered to assist in the Hurricane 
Katrina relief efforts: 
 
The New Zealand Ministry of Civil Defense and Emergency 
Management has identified three (3) to four (4) people with 
experience in post-flood disaster recovery management.  The 
team would comprise recovery specialists from the Ministry 
and local government and would include managers with direct 
experience from the 10-day floods in February 2004 that hit 
the Manawatu region in the southern part of New Zealand's 
North Island.  The team could contribute planning skills at 
the local government or regional level.
