How You Can Prepare for Floods
Use the information and tools to:
- Figure out their risk of flooding at home and while traveling
- Learn what food and supplies are needed to shelter at home during a flood
- Determine what you should take with you if evacuating
DWR's role in flood preparedness includes:
- Working with communities to improve community safety and lower insurance premiums for residents
- Holding preseason briefings for emergency responders to learn about resources and coordinate with other local agencies to prepare for flood season
- Conducting meetings with flood emergency response partners and county emergency operation officials throughout the state
- Providing training in effective flood fighting methods for mitigating a flood
- Activating our Flood Operations Center when flooding is imminent or occurring to coordinate response between local agencies and provide technical assistance as requested
- Providing grant funding for flood management projects, emergency preparedness, feasibility studies, Delta-specific and other state projects, and forecast-coordinated operations in the Central Valley
- Helping communities if their local resources are exhausted when responding to floods through our partnership with the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (CalOES)
- Working collaboratively with more than 200 local, State, and federal agencies to collect and share weather and river runoff data via our California Data Exchange Center (CDEC)
