The agency has met with the government
in previous summers to discuss contingency plans for major

Isaac's path remains uncertain, but some computer models show the storm slicing its way up Florida's peninsula. Others send it farther west, into the Gulf of Mexico.
Officials are taking the threat seriously.
"Obviously, we hope Isaac doesn't hit Florida, but we must take every precaution," Scott said.
