The site navigation utilizes arrow, enter, escape, and space bar key commands. Left and right arrows move across top level links and expand / close menus in sub levels. Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.
The Suffolk County Water Authority (SCWA) relies on elevated storage tanks to maintain constant water pressure across the distribution system. When levels drop, we issue alerts to protect public safety.
Excessive lawn irrigation depletes water storage tanks faster than groundwater wells can actively refill them.
As the total volume of water inside the tanks drops, gravity-fed water pressure across the system drops with it.
Critical reserves must be maintained in every tank to provide the high-volume pressure local fire departments require for emergencies.
Tank levels are dropping below optimal ranges.
Tank levels are low, threatening systemic pressure.
Storage reserves are severely depleted, compromising fire protection.
