A volunteer group with boats is going to Texas to help with rescue.

Of course there's some government type that wanted to get involved.
From the article:
"In spite of a state lawmaker's effort last year to require training and
permit fees, no one has taken an actual census of the group. Hains on
Sunday estimated that there are hundreds of members, most from southern
Louisiana €” thus the €œCajun€ appellation."
