Remote Communities

Water emergencies pose more risk to isolated & remote communties.

Global Hydration understands the challenges faced by remote communities and can offer a number of rugged, easy to use and mobile water purification solutions. We want to help you complete your emergency response plan (ERP). Has your community performed a table top emergency exercise to look at how it may respond to a water emergency?

  • During a boil water advisory, if the community is subject to a blackout, how will citizens boil their water?
  • If roads and airports are closed due to natural disaster or weather, how will emergency supplies be sourced?
  • If relying on bottled water, has a tabletop exercise been done to ensure viability (logistics, cost, quantity, availability)?

We can eliminate the gap between the time a water emergency is declared in your community and the time that a solution can be deployed. Global Hydration's water purification systems have been incorporated into emergency response trailers and sea containers, deployed to remote communities by air charter and used to backup municipal water treatment plants.

Global Hydration has presented at the Walkerton Clean Water Centre (WCWC), is a member of the Canadian Water & Wastewater Association (CWWA), the International Water Association (IWA) and the Thunder Bay Chamber of Commerce. For a copy of the presentation made to the 2011 Walkerton Clean Water Centre Tech Forum titled "When Bottled water is Not Available - An Overview of Portable Water Purification Systems & Technologies Available for Emergency Preparedness & Disaster Response" please contact us by phone or email.
