Some emergencies are more manageable than others, and most utilities can react effectively if an emergency or malfunction is localized. However, when calamity strikes--e.g., the Northridge, California, earthquake in January 1994 or Northern California's flooding in the winter of 1995--normal resources are not enough. To manage such situations, California water utilities have formed the Water Agency Response Network (WARN) to provide mutual aid during crises. In this article, the author describes the history and current operation of mutual aid efforts in California and recounts how the East Bay Municipal Utility District helped in the aftermath of the Northridge earthquake. Includes figure.
