SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2016
SEPTEMBER IS NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS MONTH September is recognized as National Preparedness Month (NPM), which serves as a reminder, that we must all take action to prepare, now and throughout the year, for the types of emergencies that could affect us where we live, work, and where we visit. Due to the success of last year’s theme for 2016, “Don’t Wait, Communicate. Make Your Emergency Plan Today,” will be returning for this September. At Loudoun Water, we like to encourage residents to take waterrelated preparations in the event of a weather emergency. Water is an essential element to survival and a necessary item in an emergency supplies kit. For more information continue reading on page three.
IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD Take a short drive around Loudoun County and you’ll most likely see a few infrastructure projects or other construction along the roadway. As the county expands so does the need for new roads, water pipes and other utilities. That’s why we’ve put together a section on our website that highlights all of the current Loudoun Water projects in our service area. Our Engineering division updates project fact sheets every month to provide revised timelines, additional project details and more. Additionally, we have a Current Projects map that allows users to see where each project is located throughout our service area.
