Experts are forecasting a busier-than-normal hurricane season, which runs from June 1 through Nov. 30. As the community checks the status of storm supplies, the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department (WASD) is stocked and prepared to provide uninterrupted service before, during and after a storm. The department has fuel and water treatment supply reserves to operate on auxiliary power at the three plants to ensure uninterrupted service to its nearly 2.3 million customers for two weeks without supplemental deliveries. In 2017, during Hurricane Irma, water service was never impacted, and a precautionary boil water order was not issued for WASDs service area. When verifying what hurricane supplies you need to replenish, it is unnecessary to add bottled water to your shopping list.
