In honor of Memorial Day❤️🤍💙, our office will be closed on Monday, May 26th. We will resume normal business hours on Tuesday, May 27th.

Your safety is our priority. Follow these simple tips to stay safe around electricity, water, and wastewater systems in your home and community.


⚡ Electrical Safety

Indoors:

  • Never use damaged cords or outlets that feel warm.
  • Keep appliances away from water sources.
  • Teach children not to play near outlets or electrical panels.
  • Use GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas.

Outdoors:

  • Stay at least 30 feet away from downed power lines—always assume they’re live.
  • Call 911 and our 24-hour number if you see a fallen line or sparks.
  • Never touch trees or equipment near overhead power lines.
  • Avoid flying kites, drones, or metallic balloons near power lines.

💧 Water Safety

Inside the Home:

  • Know where your main water shut-off valve is in case of leaks.
  • Prevent scalds: Set your water heater thermostat to 120°F (49°C) or lower.
  • Fix leaks quickly to avoid mold and water damage.
  • Do not flush wipes, paper towels, or grease—they can clog pipes and sewers.

Outside:

  • Keep fire hydrants clear of snow, vegetation, and debris.
  • Don’t let children play in street puddles near storm drains.
  • Avoid contact with water during and after heavy storms, which may contain runoff or sewer overflow.
