This website allows CalWARN signatory utilities to view a current list of agencies in their region, so they can network and directly request assistance if they prefer. Signatories can also ask their region co-chairs for help in requesting assistance within the region, across more than one region, or throughout the state.
CalWARN partners include the California Utilities Emergency Association (CUEA), representatives from the California Department of Public Health Drinking Water Program (CDPH-DWP), the Department of Water Resources (DWR), the American Water Works Association (AWWA) Security & Emergency Planning Committee, Rural Community Assistance Corporation (RCAC) and the California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA) [or US EPA?].
