Days after rampant flooding hit areas of New Orleans, questions are still flying about the status of the city's pumping system.

Mayor Mitch Landrieu wants an "after-action report" on the pumps, though he contends the system is one of the best on the planet. The heavy rains left many businesses, homes and streets flooded.

Landrieu and Governor John Bel Edwards toured Mid-City and Treme yesterday where upwards of nine inches of rain fell Saturday.
