Mississippi Tank Co, Hattiesburg MS, is back online after suffering light damage to products and facility, says Mike Pitts, sales vice-president.

Hurricane Katrina shutdown power and water supply in the city, causing the company to interrupt operations for eight days. E-mail service remains temporarily interrupted, but telephone service has been restored.

All employees escaped serious injury, but many homes in the area were severely damaged, Pitts says.
