According to Kyle Lehne, Sun Coast’s Vice President of Emergency Response, “we plan all year long to put in place emergency plans with our customers should a storm happen. When customers have pre-planning strategies, protocols, contracts, credits applications, and contact information already in place, it makes the operation seamless for all concerned.” For more information on how your company can be prepared prior to a storm, please visit www.emergencyfuel.net.
