Army Corps of Engineers Colonel Lewis Setliff, Commander of Task Force Guardian, looks on near the failed floodwall of the Industrial Canal Friday, Jan. 13, 2006, in New Orleans. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Interagency Performance Evaluation Team removed samples of the floodwall material along the canal as part of an investigation to allow inspectors to test and analyze the material to help determine why the floodwall performed as it did during Hurricane Katrina. A new, stronger, T-shaped beam is planned for replacement by June 1, 2006, which will restore the levee to pre-Katrina strength. (AP Photo/Ben Margot)
