Just wondering. How could I find out about the purchasing process and who made the trailers used by FEMA post Katrina?
It seems that many of the people who lived in these trailers have gotten ill due to large amounts, up the 5 times the allowable amounts, of formaldehyde.
The chemical, used in interior glue, was detected in many of the 143,000 trailers sent to the Gulf Coast in 2006. But a push to get residents out of them, spearheaded by FEMA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, did not begin until this past February.

I was just wondering if the company that produced the trailers had some kind of connection with whoever was purchasing them.
