March 2024 Overview for Neighborhood Representatives

Everyone needs water every day! Your emergency planning should include one gallon per person per day for consumption, cooking, and hygiene. Store purified water in thoroughly cleaned, sealed containers, and replace it every six months.

Don’t forget water for your house pets!

The current recommendation is to store one (1) gallon of water per person per day for a two-week period. This can be challenging because water is heavy, needs a lot of storage space, and has filtering and purification requirements. The good news is that there are a variety of options, from store-bought bottled water to DIY containers to domestic hot water heaters.
