Today's Lagniappe:  One of our challenges in Louisiana is that we do disasters regularly and all too often.  This can lead to confusion about changes in programs and assumptions about how things were "the last time" or the time before that, or before that.  While this event is very impactful for every person affected, it is not the same as Hurricanes Laura or Ida or other larger scale events and therefore, we should not make assumptions about what may be automatically available.  Just a few examples:  parish Points of Distribution (PODs), roadside debris pickup in every parish, generator and chainsaw reimbursement through FEMA. Some of these things are dependent on the size and scope of an event, requested and justified waivers, and declaration coverage for various categories of assistance, to name a few.  As we learned after Ida, changes can also happen along the way and so we will continue to provide updates and messaging from our Federal, State and local partners as made available.  Please verify before assuming something is the same as last time.
