Emergency Operations Manager George Minges (right) and Emergency Operations Planner Andrew Fleming, both from the Louisville District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, operate an hydraulic sandbag filler in Horry County, S.C., in support of Hurricane Florence flood risk management efforts underway across the region here, Sept. 17, 2018. The sandbagging system can generally fill up to 500 sandbags per hour and greatly enhances USACE’s ability to provide sandbags during natural disasters. Since arriving in S.C., the team has worked with the local Army National Guard units to fill more than 5,500 sandbags. When disasters occur, USACE teams and other resources are mobilized from across the country to assist FEMA, state and county efforts regarding flood response. (U.S. Army photo by Edward N. Johnson)
