Emergencies happen unexpectedly, which makes early preparation a key component to recovery. Reliable water supplies are essential to our daily lives.
Though EVWD continuously works to protect public health and safety by strengthening facilities and practicing strategies for a quick recovery, a major disaster can temporarily disrupt water and sewer services. You could experience a variety of hazards ranging from the most severe - a major regional earthquake - to localized landslides, flooding, and wildfires.
EVWD recommends customers take some simple steps to be prepared for an emergency:
- Store water
- Build an emergency kit
- Make a plan
- Stay informed
