Three Schneider National tank trailers were part of a police-led caravan to the Port of New Orleans to siphon diesel fuel from a tanker and then transport the product to locations for emergency vehicles and generators in and around the greater New Orleans area.

The first deliveries of fuel took place September 4, Schneider said.

Government agencies have asked the carrier to provide drivers, supervision, and dispatch for the emergency effort for the next 30 days, with possible extensions.
