Our industry publication, Maintenance Solutions, highlights the recovery from the Flood of 2008 for the University of Iowa.

The City Iowa City, home of the University of Iowa, and City of Cedar Rapids, home of Tucker Manufacturing Co., Inc. were both impacted heavily by the Flood of 2008 that hit the Iowa River and Cedar River basins.

Our facility was just blocks away from the flood zone here in Cedar Rapids. Neighbors, vendors, customers and others in our community were greatly impacted. Steam service to Cedar Rapids business was knocked out, permanently. Our facility utilized steam service in our operations, so it was a hardship for us here at Tucker However, the impact of the Flood was far worse on many of our neighbors here in our community.
