Action Plan for May:

Action Plan for May: Water

• Understand your water needs.  Store sufficient drinking water for you family for a minimum of two weeks.  Gather or update purification supplies.  Practice water usage and purification skills.
• You can only last three to four days without it. Having a storage of clean drinking water and knowing how to safely treat more is vital to "be ready" for survival.                                       

Plan:

• Download the Emergency Water Packet  Click Here
• Review the Links in the text
• Resources are at the Bottom of the Page
• Customize to your needs

Prepare:

• Start or Update your Emergency Water Supply.

• Store a MINIMUM of 1 gallon of clean drinking water per person per day.
• Store a MINIMUM 2 week supply (14 gallons each) for you and your family.

• Next: Start or Update your Emergency Water Purification Equipment.

• Gather and store water treatment supplies in your disaster supply kits and at home supplies.  This provides backup for longer term needs.

Practice:

• Hands on practice has been shown to be the best way to be able to respond well in an emergency.   Dry run various scenarios and the anxiety of the emergency is greatly decreased.

• Practice using only your stored water for two or three days. See if you can live on only one gallon of water per person per day.
• Practice using your water purification equipment and supplies so you are comfortable using them in an emergency.
