I think they could have order an evacuation of anyone in a 500 year floodplain. That would have meant they could concentrate on rescues where flooding is happening on higher ground outside those zones, and it would not have been a mass evacuation like the Rita fiasco.

Right. People tend to look at this (evacs) as all or nothing, where limited / targeted evacuations would make more sense.
