Past emergencies and recovery needs in Coalinga

Federal records show Fresno County designated in 18 declarations since 1969, led by flooding (6 declarations) and severe storms (4 declarations). If you plan across towns, check the page for Avenal as well; Kings County has 17 federal declarations on record.

The most recent is Severe Winter Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (major disaster declaration, DR-4699), declared April 3, 2023, with the incident beginning February 21, 2023. Severe storms interrupt power, roads and deliveries together, which is hard on any operation that serves meals on a schedule. By incident type, the count is flooding 6, severe storms 4, wildfire 3, freezing conditions 3 and hurricane 1. By decade: 1960s 1, 1970s 1, 1980s 1, 1990s 6, 2000s 2, 2010s 1 and 2020s 6. Before that came Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (EM-3592, March 10, 2023), Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4683, January 14, 2023), Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, and Mudslides (EM-3591, January 9, 2023), Wildfires (DR-4569, October 16, 2020) and Creek Fire (FM-5348, September 6, 2020).

Ten years of NOAA storm records, 2016 through 2025, show 363 county-based event records for Fresno County; flood events account for 311 of them, high-wind and thunderstorm events for 52. The costliest event with a reported dollar figure was a tornado in January 2019, with about $500,000 in property damage. Floodwater leaves a building standing but unusable, so cooking, dishwashing and cold storage have to run from a trailer on higher, firm ground.

Since 2016, NIFC perimeter data lists 8 large wildfires beginning in Fresno County, about 538,683 acres in all. Creek (2020, 379,802 acres) was the largest, and O30 (2026) the most recent. Fire weather means planned power cuts as well as fires, and a walk-in cooler does not keep product cold through a long shutoff.

FEMA declarations apply to designated areas and do not say which individual buildings were affected.

Infrastructure work around Coalinga

Since October 2021, 78 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named Fresno County as the place of work. Another public record is “Replacement of Fresno Jet Fuel Complex,” a $17 million Department of Defense contract from September 2020 in Fresno County (award record). In September 2019, the Department of Veterans Affairs awarded a $15 million contract for “Phase II Chiller Project for VA Central California Healthcare System” in Fresno County, with work running to May 2024 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $13 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract, “Improve Site Access and Physical Security Deficiencies for VA Fresno,” starting January 2024 in Fresno County (award record). The Department of Agriculture committed $10 million to “Jerseydale Work & Batterson Work Center Barracks” in Fresno County, awarded February 2025 (award record). Work like this puts crews on a site for months, often far from a restaurant, and the meals become a logistics question before the first shift starts. A job in Huron (about 6,737 residents) raises the same crew-meal questions.

Rebuilds and remodels around Coalinga

Another public record is “Implementing Eo 14398 Dei Discrimination Renovate and Expand Chilled Water Infrastructure,” a $24 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract from October 2026 in Fresno County (award record). In August 2023, the Department of Veterans Affairs awarded a $19 million contract for “Renovate Sterile Processing & Supply (SPS)” in Fresno County, with work running to September 2026 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $11 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract, “Renovate Imaging and Cathertization Lab,” starting October 2026 in Fresno County (award record). The Department of Veterans Affairs committed $11 million to “Remodel Emergency Department (Ed) for Observation Beds” in Fresno County, awarded March 2023 (award record). Whoever remodels in Lemoore starts from the same two questions: when does the kitchen close, and what feeds people until it reopens?

Emergency access and staging near Coalinga

The California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) and local emergency managers decide where public disaster staging happens in California. Those details are theirs to publish and update, so this page points to them instead of guessing at a route. For work in San Joaquin, look to the agencies covering that area rather than assuming the same routes.
