What past disasters mean for kitchens in Orting

OpenFEMA lists 24 disaster declarations that include Pierce County, going back to 1964. The most frequent incident types were flooding (11 declarations) and severe storms (8 declarations). Puyallup has a page of its own with the federal declarations for its county, useful when one project crosses the line.

The most recent is Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (major disaster declaration, DR-4906), declared April 7, 2026, with the incident beginning December 5, 2025. Floodwater can contaminate kitchen equipment and force closures until cleanup and inspection are finished, which is when replacement cooking, dishwashing and cold storage matter. By incident type, the count is flooding 11, severe storms 8, earthquake 2, wildfire 1 and coastal storm 1. By decade: 1960s 2, 1970s 2, 1980s 2, 1990s 7, 2000s 7, 2010s 1 and 2020s 3. Earlier declarations include Severe Storms, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (EM-3629, December 12, 2025), Sumner Grade Fire (FM-5360, September 9, 2020), Severe Winter Storm, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4056, March 5, 2012), Severe Winter Storm and Record and Near Record Snow (DR-1825, March 2, 2009) and Severe Winter Storm, Landslides, Mudslides, and Flooding (DR-1817, January 30, 2009).

Between 2016 and 2025 the Storm Events Database recorded 2 county-based event records in Pierce County, with flood events the most common at 2. Floodwater leaves a building standing but unusable, so cooking, dishwashing and cold storage have to run from a trailer on higher, firm ground.

No wildfire of 1,000 acres or more has a mapped origin in Pierce County in NIFC's records since 2016. Smoke and power shutoffs travel farther than fires do, though: the nearest large fire on record began in King County, about 34 miles away, where the Bolt Creek fire burned 14,821 acres in 2022.

A declaration designates an area for federal assistance; it does not describe damage at any one address.

Major construction near Orting

Since October 2021, 100 or more federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named Pierce County as the place of work. In May 2020, the Department of Defense awarded a $92 million contract for “Mcchord Airfield Bridge Repair, Jblm” in Pierce County, with work running to October 2021 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $79 million Department of Defense contract, “Construct Primary Joint Regional Confinement Facility,” starting November 2019 in Pierce County (award record). The Department of Defense committed $79 million to “Award to Construct Barracks Located at Joint Base Lewis Mcchord (Jblm) Washington” in Pierce County, awarded September 2025 (award record). Another public record is “Military Construction of Consolidated Rigging Facility, Joint Base Lewis-Mcchord, Washington,” a $53 million Department of Defense contract from November 2025 in Pierce County (award record). Crews on projects like this rarely have a restaurant nearby, which is the case for cooking on site with a rented kitchen and a dishwashing trailer. A job in Bonney Lake (about 22,145 residents) raises the same crew-meal questions.

Rebuilds and remodels around Orting

No federal contract for repairing or modernizing a building is on record for Pierce County. The nearest is in Thurston County, about 33 miles away. In December 2025, the Department of Transportation awarded a $1.3 million contract for “Replace Olm Atct Roof Envelope and Stop Water Intrusion” in Thurston County, with work running to October 2026 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $540,000 Department of Agriculture contract, “GAOA Rainforest Toilet Replacement,” starting November 2022 in Thurston County (award record). Work inside an occupied facility tends to take its kitchen offline for weeks, so the plan for meals has to exist before the work starts. Sumner is on the same footing: the old kitchen closes on a date, and the temporary one has to be cooking before it.

Getting emergency equipment into Orting

Public emergency operations in Washington are coordinated by the Washington Emergency Management Division (EMD), with county emergency managers handling local response. Staging areas and access routes for disaster response are published by those agencies and can change, so this page does not draw a route. For work in Edgewood, look to the agencies covering that area rather than assuming the same routes.

Multicare Good Samaritan Hospital is the nearest hospital CMS lists, in Puyallup, about 7 miles from Orting in a straight line.
