It also has met with its hurricane debris contractors to ensure they are aware of expectations and who they will be dealing with immediately if fallen debris is a byproduct of a storm.<\/p>\n<p>At least 72 hours ahead of a storm, fixed-pump stations in low-lying areas are operated to lower lakes, ponds and canal systems. This provides additional storm water storage should the region encounter heavy rainfall. All teams also check their assigned areas and take action to clear anything that may slow the storm water down as it flows to canals, ponds and drainwells.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, mobile pumps are dispatched to County-maintained areas and all equipment is fueled up and made ready to respond at a moment\u2019s notice. <a href=\"http:\/\/orangecountyfl.net\/TrafficTransportation\/TrafficManagement.aspx#.YryEOy-B10s\">Traffic Engineering<\/a> verifies all of its mobile generators are ready to go should power outages occur.<\/p>\n<p>Working with the Parks and Recreation Division, Public Works provides citizens with a self-serve sandbag program at five different parks within the County.\u00a0 The department also ensures sandbag filling areas are set up if heavy amounts of rainfall associated with a tropical event are predicted well in advance of the storm.<\/p>\n<p>Charles affirmed that 51\u00a0primary control structures, 85\u00a0drainwells, 19\u00a0pump stations, 95\u00a0miles of primary canals, and 85\u00a0miles of secondary canals, 1,609 MSBU (Municipal Service Benefit Units) ponds and 377 non-MSBU ponds have been checked (and will continue to be checked every four weeks). Phone lists have been updated, and all teams have been reminded to double check their PPE and storm gear.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery year is different, so we\u2019re always making adjustments,\u201d said Charles. \u201cThis year, for instance, we\u2019ve experienced below average rainfall, which has enabled us to eliminate sediment deposits because they\u2019re not under water and we can see them. We\u2019ve taken every precaution to ensure we\u2019re not caught off guard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As you prepare for hurricane season, know that Orange County is performing year-round maintenance to ensure it is prepared for if and when a storm hits the region.
