RigMaster Power Corp. has resumed operations at its Kansas facility that was hit by a tornado on May 2nd that caused extensive damage to the building. No one was injured, however.

The facility houses production and parts operations for the company. Production began less than two weeks after the tornado, with parts reopening a few days later and both divisions are currently operating at full capacity, the company said.

Local representatives took immediate action to assess the damage and restore the building, which allowed RigMaster staff, augmented by a team from its Toronto-based offices, to get back to work.
