Water is essential
Plan A: Store Emergency Water
Store enough emergency water for your family to survive for 2 weeks, according to recommendations by FEMA and emergency response agencies. Calculate how much you need.
At a minimum, store 1 gallon of water per day per person and pet for 2 weeks.
Add a gallon for each batch of rice or noodles you might cook during a two-week period.
Consider storing more water than this for pregnant women, people who are sick, pets, or if you live in a hot climate.
Plan B: Acquiring & Treating Outside Water. In case you run out of emergency water, have a backup strategy, Plan B. Step 1: Determine your local sources of non-potable water
