Hattiesburg, MS, September 1, 2021: No matter the situation CR Fuels of Hattiesburg has a solution. Hurricane Ida was a deadly and destructive Category 4 Atlantic hurricane that became the second-most damaging and intense hurricane to make landfall in the U.S. (State of Louisiana) on record, behind Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Throughout its path of destruction in Louisiana, more than a million people in total had no electrical power. Widespread heavy infrastructural damage occurred throughout the southeastern portion of the state, as well as extremely heavy flooding in coastal areas. This is when CR Fuels was prepared to respond and sprung into action with On-Site Fueling Stations, Card Management, Equipment, and Staff to provide fuel vital for relief efforts.
