Title
A name given to the resource
Tank Truck in Olean, NY, 1972
Description
An account of the resource
Beginning June 22, 1972 slow-moving Hurricane Agnes made landfall in New York state and by the next day had deluged Southern Tier communities with heavy rains. Major rivers like the Allegheny, Genesee, and Susquehanna were many feet above flood stage--in some cases rising by seven inches per hour--and several towns declared evacuations. The damage was considerable: bridges, railway lines, businesses, homes, and farms were flooded.
Following in a long American tradition, a rapidly published book of photos and descriptions was created to commemorate the event. In this photograph, the caption reads: "With public water supplies washed out many communities such as Olean got water from tank trucks."
