Residents in flood-prone areas should remember to clean their storm drains, clean leaves as they fall, and have items like shovels, boots, raincoats, and sandbags on hand. In the event of projected flooding sandbags are available to Calaveras County residents and businesses at various locations. Some assistance may be available, but residents should bring shovels and plan to fill and load the bags themselves.
