The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS), through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has placed a rush order of two million meals to be delivered to Floyd Bennett New York Harbor Parks, and Lakehurst New Jersey.
The solicitation was placed at 2:30 pm EST on 2 November 2012, with a response time of no later than 8 pm on the same day.
The solicitation was amended less than four hours later for providers to provide a quote of four million meals, preferably of the self-heating variety. The request is for self-heating Meals Ready to Eat (MRE) with a 13-month shelf life preferred, and delivered wrapped and palletized by 4:30 PM local time on Monday, 5 November 2012.
One half will be shipped to Floyd Bennett New York Harbor Parks and that will be due on 6 Nov 2012, the other one million will ship to Lakehurst New Jersey and be due the following day.
However, in the solicitation it is clear that more MRE’s may be ordered at the same price, and allowances have been made for a quote of 4 million meals to be delivered.This is not the first time that FEMA has made solicitations for flash deliveries. In September of this year, FEMA requested a provider to provide up to one million meals within a 48 hour period because of Hurricane Isaac. However, there is no record of any company being awarded that contract.
Hold on New York and New Jersey. Meals are on their way.
Now you know why preppers try to have two weeks worth of food and water. Help may take a while. Let this be a lesson to all of us, preppers or non-preppers.

A crisp, clear day greeted New Jerseyans this morning as the state continues to pull itself up from the devastation of Hurricane Sandy, with mandatory gasoline rationing set to take effect in 12 counties, and 1.4 million homes and businesses still without power.
A shortage of fuel that has led to hours-long lines at gas stations across the state forced Gov. Chris Christie Friday night to approve odd-even rationing for gasoline purchases in 12 counties. Beginning at noon, only motorists with license plates ending in an odd number can fill up today.
Roads and rails that were closed in the wake of Monday’s storm have mostly reopened, and commuters should be in much better shape by Monday, state officials said.
Going into New York, car pool restrictions — at least three people to a vehicle — were lifted on the Lincoln Tunnel Friday night. That, along with the restoration of NJ Transit and Amtrak train service to New York on the Northeast Corridor, and the opening of the Holland Tunnel to buses, should ease traffic into Manattan. About 60 percent of NJ Transit’s rail service should be ready for Monday’s commute, said Jim Weinstein, the agency’s executive director.

A destroyed car near the Jacob Riis Houses on Manhattan's Lower East Side (Jonathan Maimon)
(Jonathan Maimon)
Jonathan Maimon lives in Downtown Brooklyn, where he commutes to his job as a associate portfolio manager for a mutual fund based in Jersey City. Maimon spent six years in Manhattan and calls it "a place that I'm pretty close with emotionally," which is why he made a meandering five-hour, 12 mile run across Lower Manhattan to survey the damage. Based on what he saw, he thinks that perhaps the city is moving on too quickly.

FEMA's vaunted "lean forward" strategy that called for advanced staging of supplies for emergency distribution failed to live up to its billing in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.
In fact, the agency appears to have been completely unprepared to distribute bottled water to Hurricane Sandy victims when the storm hit this Monday. In contrast to its stated policy, FEMA failed to have any meaningful supplies of bottled water -- or any other supplies, for that matter -- stored in nearby facilities as it had proclaimed it would on its website. This was the case despite several days advance warning of the impending storm.
FEMA only began to solicit bids for vendors to provide bottled water for distribution to Hurricane Sandy victims on Friday, sending out a solicitation request for 2.3 million gallons of bottled water at the FedBizOpps.gov website. Bidding closed at 4:30 pm eastern.
Breitbart News spoke with contracting officer Annette Wright, who said that the winning vendor would be required to deliver the 2.3 million gallons of bottled water to an East Farmingdale, New York distribution center that was listed in the solicitation request by Monday, November 5th. Ms. Wright was unable to say when or how the water would be delivered from the distribution center to needy Hurricane Sandy victims in New Jersey, Staten Island, Long Island, and other boroughs of New York City. Vendors "are currently being evaluated," she said, and when the vendors are announced, they will provide information on how local distribution will occur.

PATH service to midtown Manhattan is likely to be ready Monday, but PATH service to flooded Lower Manhattan will take considerably longer.
LaGuardia Airport, JFK International Airport and Newark Liberty International Airport are open and carriers have resumed normal flight volume, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey said today. Stewart International Airport and Teterboro Airport also are operating normally.
The Odd-even fuel sales that takes effect today will be anyone looking to purchase gas in Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Morris, Monmouth, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union and Warren counties.
A little explanation should clear things up for motorists with letters at the end of their plates, or those who have plated without any numbers:
The number to look for is the final numerical digit contained in the plate number, whether it is the final character on the plate or not, according to the governor's office. So, for example, a theoretical plate number of "XYZ 27Q" would have "7" as its final numerical digit, and would be permitted gasoline on an odd day. Specialized or vanity plates, those not displaying any numbers, will be considered odd numbered plates.
The storm, which cut a swatch of destruction from New Jersey up to parts of Connecticut also forced the cancellation of Sunday's New York City Marathon, which was announced Friday night. Mayor Michael Bloomberg reversed himself, yielding to mounting criticism that this was no time to run the race, which starts on hard-hit Staten Island and wends through all five of the city's boroughs.
The hurricane-related death toll in New Jersey jumped to 22 on Friday, up from 14 just the day before, with 41 storm-related deaths in New York City and more than 100 nationwide.

The hurricane-related death toll in New Jersey jumped to 22 on Friday, up from 14 just the day before, with 41 storm-related deaths in New York City and more than 100 nationwide.
Five storm-related deaths in New Jersey have been attributed to carbon monoxide poisoning from gasoline generators powering homes, officials have said.
Friday night and into Saturday morning, emergency crews from Essex to Monmouth counties responded to several incidents of carbon monoxide poisoning. No serious injuries were reported. Firefighters and police responded in Roxbury Township, Toms River, Jersey City, Spotswood and Marlboro. Officials say generators should never be run in enclosed spaces like a basement or garage, even if the doors or windows are open.
The destruction in New Jersey has included thousands of homes destroyed or damaged, boardwalks washed away and towns flooded. Friday night, police began evacuating seven Barrier Island communities, which officials say could be off limits for up to eight months while extensive repairs are made to their infrastructure, including sewer systems and gas lines.
In Seaside Heights, one of communities affected by the evacuations, a small police presence could be seen this morning at the foot of the Route 37 bridge into and out of the Ocean County borough. School buses filled with residents pulled into the Pier 1 Motel, a gathering point where they will eventually be evacuated from.
Federal Emergency Management Agency offices field offices opened Friday in Brick and Cape May Court House. More were expected to open in New Jersey in the coming days to help residents get cash and food assistance and apply for other federal help. In the five days since Sandy made landfall, some 2,300 FEMA agents have been involved in the response and recovery effort.
The agency has released more than $18 million in rental and other forms of financial assistance, including more than $10.6 million to New Jersey residents, administrator Craig Fugate said.

In a string of announcements on Friday, Gov. Christie also said he would make public a list of when utility companies intend to restore power to each community. Residents in those communities will have a sense of when they will have power restored so they can plan their lives a bit better, Christie said.
As of this morning, 1.4 million homes and businesses were still without power, from a high of 2.4 million statewide, authorities said. Roughly 8,000 out-of-state utility workers had been brought in to help the 10,000 in New Jersey that are working to restore power, with temporary housing being set up for workers.
Food has also become an urgent need for many, with stores and supermarkets only beginning to reopen and supply lines interrupted. At the Community FoodBank of New Jersey, the losses are being measured in tons: 40 tons of produce; 8 tons of dairy; And an undetermined number of turkeys that were to have been distributed for Thanksgiving.
"We’ve been hit bad," said President and CEO Kathleen DiChiara. "This is going to be a longtime recovery."
Despite the power outage at its base in Hillside, the FoodBank worked throughout the storm to get food to emergency shelters. The agency estimates it is still feeding 10,000 people uprooted by the storm.
And with the presidential election just three days away, state officials have been scrambling to ensure voters can cast their ballots on Tuesdaay.
As of noon Friday, the 21 county boards of elections were required to tell the state Division of Elections and the state Attorney General’s Office of all inaccessible polling sites among the approximately 3,000 statewide and proposed alternatives.
Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno has ordered county clerks and elections offices to remain open through the weekend, from at least 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., so anyone interested could vote in person. Guadagno said residents could text WHERE to 877877 or visit www.elections.nj.gov to learn the location of their polling places.

Obama orders fuel to be sent to NY and NJ in wake of Sandy
- Last Updated: 7:53 PM, November 2, 2012
- Posted: 7:53 PM, November 2, 2012
WASHINGTON — The Obama administration is ordering the purchase of up to 12 million gallons of unleaded fuel and up to 10 million gallons of diesel fuel for distribution in areas impacted by Superstorm Sandy to supplement private sector efforts.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency said Friday that President Barack Obama has directed the Defense Logistics Agency to handle the purchase of the fuel. It will be transported by tanker trucks and distributed throughout New York, New Jersey and other communities impacted by the storm.
FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate said the fuel purchase is part of efforts by governments, private organizations and others to help the region recover from the weather disaster.
This purchase is in addition to an emergency diesel fuel loan from the Energy Department's Northeast Home Heating Oil Reserve.

Happy Friday: ELECTRICITY Returning To Manhattan!
Jeff Hahn
It's been a topsy-turvey day for powerless New Yorkers living in lower Manhattan, but all is (almost) better now: Con Ed has started turning on the lights! "#ConEdison restores over 65,000 customers on the Lower East Side and East Village areas of #Manhattan #Sandy," they tweeted. So far, power has been restored in the East Village, SoHo, and other parts of the Lower East Side. Check out some joyous tweets below.

NYC Marathon Won't Be Held Sunday: Mayor
The marathon will not take place in storm-ravaged New York City this Sunday, Mayor Bloomberg announced late Friday.
Bloomberg had defended his decision to hold the 26.2-mile race as scheduled on Sunday, although many New Yorkers complained it would be insensitive and divert city resources at a time when many are suffering.
Bloomberg earlier in the day said the marathon would "give people something to cheer about in what has been a very dismal week for a lot of people."
But after growing criticism, the event was put off.
"The marathon has always brought our city together and inspired us with stories of courage and determination," Bloomberg said in a statement. "We would not want a cloud to hang over the race or its participants, so we have decided to cancel it."
There was no immediate word on a new date for the event.
And for those non running advocates , here is a view of that " other " NYC .....
Outrage In The Powerless Zone: A Dispatch From Downtown Manhattan
A destroyed car near the Jacob Riis Houses on Manhattan's Lower East Side (Jonathan Maimon)
Mayor Bloomberg said last night that we've come to "the end of the downside" of Hurricane Sandy—hey, if you can spare $150 and a cab ride, you can join him at the very first Brooklyn Nets game tomorrow. But power in Lower Manhattan won't be restored for "days," and plenty of people are still facing a mandatory evacuation, if they're not dodging glass shards or pitch black stairwells. While many of us will gripe about having to work from brightly-lit homes within feet of the machine that keeps food and alcoholic beverages cold, let's remember that for many people living downtown, Sandy is still here.
(Jonathan Maimon)
"There were no Red Cross vehicles, not a lot of city vehicles around to reach out to people and ask them what services they needed," Maimon says. "It was just pedestrians walking around and exploring. People were very calm, very friendly, you know how people are in New York. But what was shocking is that there was no food. Nothing was open. And then they have to go home to apartments without power."
Maimon adds, "And the most serious thing to me is elderly or disabled people in high rise buildings—this affects you if you're rich or poor. There's not a lot of ways for them to get out safely. I'm kinda worried about the city not really knowing how many of those people are out there." That's why he wrote this letter to us. "The mayor just said that the worst of the storm was behind us, which is factually true," Maimon adds. "But I personally think the worst is yet to come. Not having power is going to wear people down." Here's his letter[UPDATE: Help is on the way, people of the Powerless Zones]:
I just returned from Manhattan. I ran for 5 hours with stops, covering 12 miles in total, scoping the island from west to east. You will not hear these stories from the Mayor or Governor; these are my observations, informed by discussions with real people who live in lower Manhattan:
1) Virtually every retailer, restaurant and grocery store south of 38th street is CLOSED. This is in an area covering 8 square miles. I only observed a handful of bodegas in Soho and the East Village, along with Ben’s Pizza on W3rd and MacDougal serving customers. Whole Foods Union Square had a sign reading “because there is no electricity, we cannot open.” There is no food, other than what you have in your refrigerator.
2) To that point, there are close to 400,000 people living below 38th street without power. The mayor earlier said it could be 3 days without power; some Con Ed guys I spoke with in the East Village think it could be longer. Nobody knows.
3) No working traffic lights in this region (drivers are generally being cautious and appropriately yielding to pedestrians). Apartment stairwells are pitch black. High rises have no elevator access.
4) For now, this is an economic crisis - hourly workers cannot be paid, freelancers have no clients, small businesses have no sales, office buildings are shuttered. In my estimate, the lost output is $1 billion dollars EVERY SINGLE DAY that goes by without power for lower Manhattan. Included in this number is the shutdown of our major airports and transportation system. (Note that NYC’s economy generates $2.8 bn daily and over $1 trillion annually - which makes it the world’s 17th largest economy, if it was a country).
5) There is no running water or flushing toilets for people living in the Jacob Riis Houses and surrounding NYCHA buildings on the Lower East Side. In my estimate, this is roughly 20,000 people. One family I spoke with is packing their bags and moving to Brooklyn until services are restored. But it did not appear that all residents were evacuating, even as their toilets did not flush.
6) I did not witness a single Red Cross Truck or FEMA Vehicle or in lower Manhattan. Recall the assistance these agencies provided after 9/11 - this is NOT HAPPENING. There are bound to be hundreds of elderly people, rich and poor, who live on the upper floors of buildings with elevators that are now disabled. IF POWER IS NOT RESTORED, THIS WILL MOVE FROM BEING AN ECONOMIC DISASTER TO A HUMANITARIAN DISASTER.
7) If you think Chinatown normally has an unpleasant odor, imagine what it smells like 24 hours following no refrigeration. Street vendors were trying to unload perishables at bargain prices. I saw a fish weighing roughly 20 pounds and spanning 3 feet from head to tail go to a buyer for $1 dollar. $1 dollar!!!!! [Here's video he sent us.]
8) The substation responsible for the outage is a huge facility. It spans an entire avenue from Avenue C to D and a length of street from 13th to 14th. If crews have to inspect every coil and wire, it might be MORE THAN THREE DAYS UNTIL POWER IS RESTORED. Additionally, the site did not appear staffed with many Con Ed workers. As a note, the 2003 blackout lasted 15 hours.
9) The water from the storm surge was invariably contaminated - floating garbage, wood pieces from the dock, and possibly sewage. One Nuyorican woman who lived on Avenue C near 12th street noted the water level peaked above her waist. She was still visibly shaken this afternoon. She also recalled a huge noise at 8 pm when the substation failed. The sky, in her words, turned from black to green
10) There were some very generous things. Northern Spy Food Co. served lunch to everyone who lined up outside their restaurant at Avenue A and 12th street - polenta, pork buns, chicken, biscuits and freshly baked cookies. They get props in my book; all this food was served to locals at no charge.

Step Aside Apple Line, Here Comes The Gas Line: Photo Album Of A Nation Waiting, Waiting, Waiting
Perhaps the reason why AAPL is having its biggest daily tumble in recent history on the day it officially launched the iPad mini for retail sale, is because all the people who otherwise would be waiting in line in front of FAO Schwartz and inhaling the smell of fresh horse excrement, are doing all they can to obtain gas. Any gas. Because iHeater, iShower and iFridge just lack that little "oomph" when dealing with people who are cold, smelly and hungry.
