"Killing Waters Revisited"
Author: Ingle, Alan L.
Published In: Emergency Preparedness
Date: 1992

Discusses the severe West Virginia floods in November 1985 and how the West Virginia University community joined in the flood relief effort.  Although the campus itself had been spared significant flood damage, the disaster led to a systematic review of the university's disaster response efforts.  Covers program development, types and magnitude of emergency conditions, action units, support units, and achieving self-sufficiency on campus in case of an emergency and recovery.  Includes figures describing West Virginia University's approach.
