FEMA chief relieved of Katrina duties

Move follows controversy over Brown’s qualifications, agency’s response



NBC News and news services

Updated: 1:31 p.m. ET Sept. 9, 2005



WASHINGTON - Federal Emergency Management Agency Director Michael Brown is being removed from his role managing Hurricane Katrina relief efforts, government sources said Friday.



Government sources disclosed the move but spoke on condition of anonymity because the change hadn't bee officially announced. Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff was expected to announce the change at a 1:45 p.m. ET news conference.



Brown will be replaced by Coast Guard Vice Adm. Thad Allen, who earlier this week was named his deputy to oversee relief and rescue efforts.



Brown is being sent back to Washington from Baton Rouge, La. He was the primary official overseeing the federal government's response to the disaster.



FEMA has been criticized for its response to the disaster, and Time magazine on Friday reported that Brown’s official biography overstated his emergency-management experience.
