Don’t Blame It On Rain — Be Rain Ready! There’s no better time to get rain ready than during the dry months of summer and early fall. Our RainReadySF strategy prepares our combined sewer system for the rainy season and when heavy rains are imminent. You can take advantage of the resources we offer to help reduce the risk of flooding. Residents and businesses can purchase FEMA-backed low-cost flood insurance, apply for a Floodwater Grant that can reimburse property owners up to $100,000 for implementing flood- proofing projects on their properties, and participate in our Adopt a Drain program by helping to keep storm drains and streets clean. To protect your family and your property when the rains return, and find out about new activities and programs, visit sfwater.org/RainReadySF. 2 currents | JULY/AUGUST 2018 SUBSCRIBE FOR FREE
