PR! GaeaCare to Focus Efforts on the Three New Disaster Recovery Centers GaeaCare Syndicate Partners Inc., 90% owned by Winsted Holdings, Inc. (OTC BB: WHLI), is pleased to announce that it is sharply focusing its Hurricanes Katrina and Rita efforts through the 3 new Disaster Recovery Centers (DRCs) that were opened October 2, 2005 by The Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Louisiana Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (OHSEP). The 3 new DRCs are St. Tammany Parish, Vermilion Parish and Point Coupee Parish.
"These 3 new DRCs brings the total of DRCs to 27," stated Winsted CEO Mark Ellis. "Since we are not a huge company, we must sharply focus our efforts where we can do the most good. The older DRCs are flooded with many companies trying to help with the recovery-cleanup-rebuild process. Rather than going head to head with incumbent companies and fighting the fierce competition, our strategy is to go to these new DRCs where the crowd is still relatively thin by comparison."
"On a broader scope, we are also seeking registration with the SouthWest Emergency Response Network (www.SWERN.gov). The SWERN is the central repository for NERR (National Emergency Resource Registry), which itself is an electronic repository for resources that may aide incident management agencies in the recovery effort. By registering with the SWERN and sharply focusing on the 3 new DRCs, we should be able to maximize our expertise while leveraging our existing vendor connections," Ellis concluded.
