PART II. EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROCECURES <br />Water emergencies can occur as a result of vandaiicm, sabotage, accidental contamination, <br />mechanical problems, power failures, drought, flooding, and other natural disasters.

In the case of a municipality, these procedures <br />should be in support of, and part of, an all - hazard emergency operations plan. If your community <br />already has written procedures dealing with water emergencies we recommend that you use these <br />guidelines to review and update existing procedures and water supply protection measures. <br />Federal Emergency Response Plan <br />Section 1433(b) of the Safe Drinking Water Act as amended by the Public Health Security and <br />Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002 (Public Law 107 -188, Title W — Drinking <br />Water Security and Safety) requires community water suppliers serving over 3,300 people to <br />prepare an Emergency Response Plan.
