Rebuilding Information Station


The Rebuilding Information Station will be closed on the following dates in November, December and early January:

  • November 26 - December 1.
  • December 19 - January 5.
We will respond to e-mail inquiries and messages left at our toll-free number (877-280-5577) while the Information Station is closed for the holidays. E-mail your rebuilding information questions to rebuilding@agcenter.lsu.edu.

Also, you may use the rebuilding@agcenter.lsu.edu e-mail address to request a rebuilding presentation for your group anywhere in the coastal Louisiana recovery area during the coming months. Subjects range from hazard awareness to storm resistant and energy efficient construction and restoration, to elevating an existing home. Presentation lengths can vary from 20 minutes to 4 hours. We also want to bring our rebuilding information, displays, and educators (from LSU AgCenter, UNO-CHART and Tulane City Center) to your fairs, shows, expos, conferences and other events.

Please continue to check this site for changes to the hours of operation and schedule of presentations.

  • Building or restoring a home so it will be safer, stronger and more energy-efficient
