They are in charge of federal dollars that are doled out for rebuilding 
amd cleanup but that does not mean they take over the state functions. 
The National guard is under state controls.  HomeLand security can not 
take control of them.  Homelanad security can not take control of local 
policing agencies.  Under the direction of Govenor of Lousiana, state 
troopers and the National Guard keeped people and relief groups and 
agencies away from New Orleans.
