Flood Information

Personal Protection

DO NOT walk or drive through flood waters! Manhole covers may have become dislodged, or there may be submerged debris which can cause you serious injury and damage, or your vehicles could stall and you could become trapped.

STAY AWAY from downed wires, while it is true they may only be cable or telephone wires they may also be LIVE ELECTRIC WIRES.

UNDER SEVERE FLOOD CONDITIONS, if you leave your home, turn off the electric at the main breaker and the gas.

LISTEN closely to radio and television for information and instructions from your local Emergency Management Office.
