FEATURE: GONE IN A MATTER OF SECONDS

though a significant number left in the weeks and months after the disaster. Those who remained performed a wide range of duties from administrative assignments to cleanup and work as participants within the man camp. Still, even after the work began in earnest, the project did not escape significant further bumps. In early November 2010, Hurricane Tomas struck Haiti. While no further damage was sustained by buildings at LMH, a large volume of wheat was damaged by the storm, requiring still further cleanup. While the complex’s port was damaged, it was still usable immediately after the earthquake, Fucina said. The wharf, a little more than 100 meters in length, proved crucial for the delivery of food and medical supplies in the aftermath of the quake, since the main port at Port au Prince was not usable (and still has yet to be fully restored). The port also was invaluable for the mill reconstruction, providing a delivery point for everything from milling equipment and concrete pump trucks to the man-camp temporary housing. Eight months after the earthquake, after Port au Prince partly reopened, Seaboard closed the port for repair for nine months. While upbeat on the outlook for Haiti and for the company itself, each of the executives interviewed still seemed burdened in different ways by their memories of the 2010 earthquake and its aftermath. Harsveld, who spent several years as a technical baker before joining LMH, said he benefited from a reassignment to another mill in the Caribbean (in British Guyana) for about a year beginning in mid-2010. “The head of the mill had been injured in a car accident,” he said. “It was good to get away.” The death toll from the January 2010 earthquake has been estimated by the government of Haiti at 316,000, which would make the quake the second deadliest in history (eclipsed only by an 8.0 magnitude quake in 1556 in Shensi,

China). Other sources have suggested the Haitian government figure is exaggerated, with one estimate from Dutch sources placing the number of deaths under 100,000. Asked for his thoughts on the figures, Fucina seemed startled by the smaller estimate and paused before responding. “You can’t imagine the number of

bodies,” he said. “I think more than 500,000 people perished here.”
