Federal Emergency Management Agency personnel move a 450KW generator in the parking lot of the U.S. Army Reserve Center in Saipan, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Nov. 29, 2018. The reserve center has been the primary staging area for FEMA generators that are distributed throughout Saipan. With the help of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the generators have energized 144 facilities since Super Typhoon Yutu, a Category 5 storm that impacted the commonwealth more than one more ago. After Super Typhoon Yutu hit the islands of Saipan and Tinian Oct. 24, several federal agencies immediately began a coordinated disaster response effort, including the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Department of Defense and local government, to help the people of these islands recover. DOD forces used in the initial typhoon response have begun redeploying at the direction of FEMA, based on the needs of the local government.
