Past Projects

When I arrived in Haiti in November, a the rubble team had encountered a problem with the rubble removal program in our location of Leogane.  An international contract was let by the Haitian government to an American Company to come in and build a rubble recycling plant along with giving provision for the removal of damaged structures.  As a result there was some miscommunication between our group and the authorities of Leogane.  Many of the structures that we were under contract to do were given to the ‘new’ contracted out of country country.  In many ways, it was fortunate that this happened because we were able to perform all the dirt work and septic projects for the base expansion.  We are looking at other projects, though, in other communities not under the Leogane jurisdiction so we will be starting back up after the new year.

I’ve enclosed some photos per request of a couple of other demo projects that the team performed before my coming.  They give a good example of what we will continue to do here in the upcoming months.
