The Holland Board of Public Works' service area is susceptible to a variety of natural and man-made emergencies that could lead to disruption of services. To prepare for these emergencies, the Holland Board of Public Works has emergency response plans and procedures in place.  Staff receive on-going training, so that they are prepared if an event should occur.

The Holland Board of Public Works recognizes the importance of the services provided to residential and business customers, and our staff make every effort to resume services as rapidly as possible after a storm or other emergencty event.  We encourage our customers to do their own preplanning.  While nothing can prepare us for every possibly emergency, the following links can help you prepare for an emergency situation.
