President Obama will be visiting New Orleans on Oct. 15, according to the Times Picayune.

The newspaper said Obama will “assess progress and remaining community needs more than four years after Hurricane Katrina devastated the city.”

The Times Picayune didn’t have details on where Obama would go, or whom he would visit with, and said he was not expected to stay overnight.

The White House announced last month that Obama planned to make his first visit to New Orleans since taking office, but didn’t say exactly when his visit would be, saying only that it would take place in mid-October.
