Emergency Water Supply Guidelines from EBMUD

Emergency Water Supply Guidelines Store 2 gallons per person, per day for 3-7 days. Plus extra for pets. Store tap water in clean, food-grade plastic containers Seal containers tightly and keep in a cool, dark place Reserve stored water for drinking and food prep Replace stored tap water every 6 months.
Thursday morning’s 3.8-magnitude earthquake reminds us that emergencies can happen at any time, and it pays to be prepared. When disaster strikes, clean water is essential. Every East Bay resident should have an emergency water supply stored at home. EBMUD prepares for emergencies and prioritizes reliability, but a major earthquake or other emergency could impact water service for days or more. A supply of emergency water for drinking, cooking and personal hygiene can help you get through the immediate aftermath of a disaster so you can focus on other needs.

Thanks to HOA Board Director Abbot Foote for recommending this earthquake preparedness recommendation be posted on our lobby Screens.

PG&E Planned Power Outages on Monday August 3

Rockridge Manor Residents

  We have seen the A-Frame Notices on Whitmore St. saying “No Parking” on Monday.  This does sound like the same format as the last outage.  Without information from PG&E, we can only guess that Whitmore St. will be open to traffic, allowing us to drive in and out, but no parking will be available.  PG&E will install generators to power our buildings while the work is done.  Generator installation is the cause of the morning outage, while generator disconnection is the cause of the evening outage.

Suggestions to prepare for the outage are consider turning off circuit breakers, computers, etc., all appliances which could be damaged by the power surge when electricity is restored.  If your area of the building is dark, use your cell phone flashlight to see and walk.  Refrigerators and freezers should be fine for the period of the outage.

Regards, the Manager
