Dear Mr. President, Mr. Vice President, Governor Bush and others:

Glad to see that a Vice Admiral Allen from the U.S. Coast Guard has been placed in the recovery effort in New Orleans for KATRINA purposes. Now to the removal of sludge and sewage clumps from ALL OF NEW ORLEANS- My expertise and over 20 years of experience handling and removing sewage a matter of record in Florida and such is beneficial and knowledge perhaps valuable as an American.

ROTO-ROOTER, ALL PLUMBING CONTRACTORS AND SEPTIC TANK CONTRACTORS have the equipment you need to suck out this sludge from manholes and one needs to concentrate on getting the sewage systems pumping to barges and tankers or honey trucks from grease and sewage/septic tank removal can take to sludge to other areas/communities with running sewage treatment plants in surrounding counties/states for dumping and treatment or neutralization.

WELL OVER 1,500,000 people are on military, civilian and pleasure vessels in the World right now and you flush food and fecal matter and chemicals into the sea. The FISH population seem to thrive on fecal mater deposited as these vessels are traveling, working, in port or anchored. As a Navy man the best time to fish was when Chow was being served in port! Small particles of the days food on a hook would catch any number of fish. POINT: Sewage has been dumped for Centuries at sea without harm. I would encourage Vice Admiral Allen to bring in super tankers and barges with Ocean Going tugs to pull these barges out to sea or to deliver materials to super tankers which will wash off later with seawater. Sludge can be loaded easily onto barges and transfered to super tankers using any number of methods as some four feet of sludge will have to be removed from the cities. Engineers can check the canal depth and if not good can ship materials to any PORT DOCKS standing where slides can take the material into barges..

The SEABEES and ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS are capable of moving large front end loaders into a position to load any number of large transports which can be dumped instantly onto barges in any area supporting same. Barges can be brought to the open water then "Splash" goes the material at sea beyond the three mile limit and possibly some 12 miles as the material can be washed over the side using high pressure pumps with sea water intakes.... 30 barges to start.

IF the superdome has to be torn down why not take the steel and cut it into "WELDED STEEL SLIDE MATERIAL FOR DUMP TRUCKS TO OFFLOAD OR DUMP DIRECTLY ONTO BARGES" Sort of like New York did for the steel from 9/11. Barges can be towed instantly to sea and dumped/pumped over the side or into larger super tankers for the trips to dumping grounds at SEA where the fish population will no doubt feed. LEAD or MERCURY.... do not know if these are present and will contaminate the deep water reefs which are only ONE DAY STEAMING FULL SPEED!

NOW for the additional sludge pumps. Vice Admiral Allen and his Army counterparts are no doubt aware that sludge can easily be pumped perhaps by 2 INCH pumps into long and very large PVC PIPING set well below the 35 FOOT HEAD PUMPING LIMITS as the 4 feet or 5 feet sludge will leave 30 feet rising to large piping which will gravity flow easily into barges which can be placed over near the levee areas and pumping NOT STOPPED but barges changed into position then pulled through to allow a tug to get into position to pull the barge OUT into deep waters. Engineers can support the PVC piping with trucks and cars abandoned until the area is clear. Neat idea as we must support this PVC piping which can be connected in MILES within a few hours with the crew working hard. UNDERGROUND one could run the piping for a mile or so then pump the materials for over the mile like water. NO CEMENT JOINTS PUSH TOGETHER RUBBER O RING JOINTS UNDERGROUND SEWER PIPE SCHEDULE 900 or so. Having served on the Ocean Going Tug SARAH HAYES in 1974 taking phosphate loads to Houston then picking up COAL for TECO plant in Tampa I can tell you the trip is rather FAST.

PUMPS MUST BE PLACED INSIDE LARGE PIPING SECTIONS WITH 1 INCH HOLES to prevent debris from clogging impellers steel recommended and underground piping adequate.. QUICK CONNECT FIRE HYDRANT DOUBLE EAR CONNECTORS CAN EASILY ALLOW COUPLING OF OUTLET PIPING SUPPORTED 20 FOOT HIGH BY STACKED VEHICLES TO DUMP GRAVITY INTO LONG RUN REQUIRED. SEALED RUNS CAN FLOAT ON TOP OF THE WATER IF NECESSARY UNTIL THE WATER DROPS. LEAVE EXTRA SLACK FOR SUCH RUNS LIKE WE DO IN DIRT... Any questions CALL!

As a State Certified Plumbing Contractor for Florida WE usually have 1/4 inch fall per FOOT for gravity feeding of water and sewage. Your engineers can tell you how close one must be to use this effectively until areas can be cleared allowing large... HUGE front end loaders to load hundreds of TRUCKS with rear dump capability who can transport the sludge to those areas where the steel SLIDES from perhaps SUPERDOME steel. Those ENGINEERS working with VACTOR TRUCKS, LIFT STATION PUMPS AND TREMENDOUS LENGTHS OF PIPING FROM 2 INCH TO 6 INCH CAN PUMP MANY MILES OF WATER/SLUDGE INTO BARGES TO BE TAKEN OUT TO SEA. Check with Vice Admiral Allen and those Old Veteran Plumbing Contractors and Inspectors who approve the sewer installations for City or County Government.

FOR MR. BROWN:
You aided the Mayor and Governor getting Military and help into the areas. BRAVO ZULU Mr. Brown [Well done!] You started rescue efforts in the greatest disaster this Nation has ever faced since the GREAT FLOOD. GOD SPEED in your efforts in the future and if you lied on your application then you should QUIT immediately and support your President!

No calls Mr. President so I guess we can stay here as you have not activated this old veteran. No call from Mayor of New Orleans so this old former law enforcement officer can perhaps stay here and keep working and sending these messages for review. AMERICAN MILITARY WITH CIVILIAN CONTRACTORS WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEMS! DO RETURN ALL PUMPS TO THE OWNERS---CLEANED FIRST WITH SALT WATER THEN DECONTAMINATED WITH FRESH WATER AND CHEMICALS. BURN THE PVC PIPING!
