CASE Construction Equipment dealer Diamond Equipment is currently supporting Team Rubicon, a veteran-led disaster response organization, in numerous operations throughout the state of Tennessee after a series of tornadoes and heavy storms moved through the region in March and April. Diamond has provided equipment to Team Rubicon’s heavy equipment cadre for debris removal and cleanup in two separate operations based in Cookeville and Chattanooga.
 
CASE has also supported Team Rubicon with equipment at another cleanup operation after a tornado swept through Louisiana in April.  
 
The operation supported by Diamond Equipment in Chattanooga is ongoing, while the operation in White and Putnam counties helped complete 45 work orders at homes and businesses, removing more than 5,500 cubic yards of debris and helping businesses and homeowners move forward.

“Diamond Equipment has always been there for the people of Tennessee, and their equipment matched with the work ethic and drive of Team Rubicon is a great example of how CASE and the construction industry supports local communities when they need it most,” says George Preocanin, vice president — North America, CASE Construction Equipment.
