Preparing for an Emergency

We want you to be prepared and safe in an emergency. 

We work hard to make sure your tap is the safest and most reliable utility in your household. However, any number of circumstances can cause a temporary loss of water service.

Did you know?

Survival instructors teach that the average person can survive:

• 3 minutes without air
• 3 hours without shelter (in harsh environments)
• 3 days without water
• 3 weeks without food

That makes water a critical consideration when preparing your home and family for a disaster. Please reference this brochure from our friends at the Woodinville Water District on how to store, purify, and access water during emergencies.
