The reporters were very prepared. The spokesman wasn't.
Something smells fishy.

The plant manager should have been answering those questions IMO

They did. Called generators. But those flooded too.
Katrina taught Nola a tough lesson regarding hospitals/critical communications/govt buildings and elevation/placement of generators.
I wouldn't imagine a plant NE of Houston would have theirs elevated to say 10 feet(Hell most I've seen are on 1 ft slabs).

They had Plan A, Plan B, and Plan C. All failed.
In NOLA, after Katrina, a lot of plants, hospitals, etc moved their generators to 15-20 feet above ground. Same will have to happen in Houston.
