Eugene Roth, a partner at Rosenn Jenkins & Greenwald, LLP, was recently quoted in an article that appeared in the Boston Globe.
The article, published on September 1, 2005, highlighted the cleanup efforts along the Gulf Coast following the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. The article compared and contrasted the rebirth of cities following major catastrophes, such as the war-torn cities of Warsaw, Poland and Hiroshima, Japan.
Mr. Roth, who helped lobby Congress for federal assistance after Hurricane Agnes destroyed Wilkes-Barre in June 1972, mentions what the government did to help residents rebuild and how the levee system was strengthened.
