Federal disaster declarations that list Rankin County
Hurricane Delta (FEMA EM-3548, hurricane) was declared on October 8, 2020, and FEMA lists Rankin County among the designated areas. The record gives incident dates of October 7, 2020 to October 11, 2020. Wind, surge, and long power loss can close a commercial kitchen for days, and a facility could keep the cooking line, range, and ovens running and serve meals onsite from a mobile commercial kitchen trailer rental while repairs run. Add a dishwashing trailer rental for the dish room, and a refrigerated trailer rental if the walk-in fails. Facilities near D'Lo face the same weather.
