FEMA Swears Off RVs

The Federal Emergency Management Agency is finally calling it quits with recreational vehicles. In the continuing saga of formaldehyde in emergency housing, FEMA has made the decision that apparently the troubles are more than they're worth.

After the Centers for Disease Control revealed they found toxic fume levels in FEMA provided trailers at rates five times the level normally found in stick-built homes, the health agency recommended hurricane survivors move out of their reeking residences.

Swamped in controversy, FEMA says it will never use trailers again as emergency housing shelters. Just where masses of homeless folks will go in another "Katrina"-like disaster is unclear. For more information, visit news station KATC's website.
