A commission formed to examine ways to guard against storms like Sandy released a report Friday that calls for flood walls in subways, water pumps at airports and sea barriers along the coast. The final report was first obtained Tuesday, Jan. 8, 2013 by The Associated Press. The findings were officially released Friday, Jan. 11, 2013, by the office of Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who formed the commission. (AP Photo/ John Minchillo, File)
