Resilience is the ability to prevent a short-term hazard event from turning into a long-term community-wide disaster. We are asking residents to join us in becoming water wise. A community that is more informed and prepared will have a greater opportunity to rebound quickly from weather and climate-related events.
Every improvement made, from the individual level to the state level will ensure the success and protection of Oklahoma resources, residents and resiliency. To meet these challenges, we have to employ methods of water conservation and reuse during drought and stormwater management during heavy rain events. When there is an abundance of rain, these conditions also result in considerable losses in the same areas. When there is not enough rain, drought conditions result in cosiderable losses to the environment, the economy and the safety of citizens.
We have to be prepared to handle both situations.
In Oklahoma, we go through periods of not enough water and then too much water.
