Safety Tips: After a Snow Storm

As the snow begins to melt, localized flooding, tree damage and landslide threats increase. Here are some safety tips for you and your family:
- To help avoid localized flooding, please clear all storm drains of snow and debris around your neighborhoods, homes and businesses.
- Never stand under trees or other structures with ice or heavy, wet snow. Portions of snow, ice and trees may fall due the weight.
- Melting snow and increased rainfall seep into soil, increasing the threat of landslides. Be aware of this risk and stay informed on the weather.
- Never go near downed power or utility lines and always stay at least 35 ft. away. Find more safety tips here.
- For non-emergency questions or to report a downed tree on public property that is not a danger, please submit a service request.
Safety Tips: Carbon Monoxide

With the incoming winter storms, it is possible power could be lost. Please remember these important safety tips to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.
