What public records show for food service in Pennington County
Past emergency
Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, And Flooding (2022)
The most recent federal disaster on record for Pennington County is DR-4659, severe storms, straight-line winds, and flooding, declared July 13, 2022. Pennington County has had 6 major disaster declarations since 2000. Floodwater can reach ground-floor kitchens and storerooms, and cleanup and inspection keep them closed. An emergency kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can keep meals going while a permanent kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.
Major construction
Road and utility work near Pennington County
FEMA's Public Assistance program funded "APP Cert - Water Control Facilities - District Wide" (water control facilities, about $250,000) in Pennington County after DR-4659, a severe storm declared July 13, 2022; FEMA lists the project as eligible. When work like this reaches Pennington County, a kitchen can lose water or power for a shift or a week, and trucks may need another way in. Long repair projects also bring crews who need to be fed, and a mobile kitchen trailer can serve them on site.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Pennington County
Cafeteria remodels, hospital kitchen rebuilds, and hotel renovations are planned months ahead. A facility in Pennington County can schedule a temporary commercial kitchen for the work, sized to its menu, meal counts, and the electrical service on site, instead of closing its kitchen.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Renovation plan: a regional jail kitchen in Pennington County
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Pennington County's own public records and our current price list. It describes what a facility like this could do, not a job we have done.
1. Situation
A regional jail kitchen in Pennington County plans 4 months of work upgrading the electrical service and gas lines that feed the kitchen. Closing for the whole project is not an option, so food service moves outside.2. Trailer setup
A 40ft Bulk Kitchen, 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer, and 40ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4), placed beside the building so staff can keep cooking, washing, and storing food on site.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-94 corridor, with the final route and gate access confirmed with the facility before dispatch. Setup would take about 5 hours for the kitchen and dishwashing trailers once power and water are ready, and about an hour for the refrigerated unit; stairs add 5–15 minutes.4. Timeline
8–12 weeks before demolition: site visit and utility check. 1 week before: delivery and setup. Then 4 months of cooking outside, with pickup after the new kitchen is commissioned.5. Estimated rental cost
40ft Bulk Kitchen $10,995 + 38ft High Temp Conveyor Dishwashing Trailer $6,995 + 40ft Refrigerated Container (Tier 1-4) $3,995 = $21,985 per month on our starting price list, or about $87,940 for 4 months. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
