Hurricane Dorian: Bahamas Petrochemical Facility
Following the storm, Cotton rapidly coordinated an international deployment to support one of the largest petrochemical facilities in the Western Hemisphere. We installed temporary housing, shower and restroom trailers, laundry facilities, a dining tent and mobile kitchens. A desalination and reverse osmosis system converted seawater to over 5,000 gallons of potable water per day. Over 400 meals were served daily with zero accidents or injuries reported, keeping the facility's daily operations fully in place throughout the recovery.
