Title	Laysan Island Work Site Destroyed by Tsunami
Creator	USFWS
Description	View from the kitchen tent door. Papahanumokuakea Marine National Monument and Laysan Island was struck by the tsunami on March 10 about 11:45 pm. The tsunami waves reached up into the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) camp co-located with the FWS field camp, destroying the NMFS kitchen tent along with the food and water supplies for their camp. The FWS camp had water under one of the personnel tents and within 50 feet of the hurricane shelter where all island residents stayed during the event.
