Federal disaster declarations that list Bladen County
Hurricane Dorian (FEMA DR-4465, hurricane) was declared on October 4, 2019, and FEMA lists Bladen County among the designated areas. The record gives incident dates of September 1, 2019 to September 9, 2019. 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 Clarkton face the same weather.
