NYT: White House had eyewitness report of levee break first day. The New York Times reported in its Friday edition that on Monday, Aug. 29, the White House had an eyewitness account that levees had broken in New Orleans. This report, based on two Congressional committee investigations of more than 800,000 pages of documents and testimony and interviews from more than 250 witnesses, runs contrary to the official White House story that it was surprised by the levee break on Tuesday, Aug. 30.

Mr. Brown, the former FEMA director, will testify before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Friday. He is expected to confirm that he notified the White House of the levee break on that Monday, but he has not identified the White House official he spoke to.
