"A total of 46 of what are referred to as "petro-casas" or "petro-homes", donated by the Venezuelan government, now house families who lost their homes in Gibara. In their new neighbourhood, named "Pueblo Nuevo" (New Town), the families are now far removed from the dangerous coastline where many of them lived before Ike came through.

Official sources in Venezuela say the houses, based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) components, are safe for human health. Families moved into a similar neighbourhood, made up of 100 petro-casas, earlier this year in the central Cuban city of Cienfuegos.

Caletones, a small fishing and resort village 20 km from Gibara, will also be relocated a safe distance from the sea. In that area, the storm surge flooded one kilometre inland when Ike hit, leaving only a few solidly-built cabins constructed by government companies standing." [source]
