- Stay upstairs if storm water reaches electrical outlets or equipment.
- Do not walk through water to reach the breaker panel.
- Watch for cracks or bowed basement walls from a safe position.
- Leave deep water pumping to a crew that can assess outside pressure.

No. Runoff from outside is Category 3 water because it can carry sewage, soil and other contaminants. Cleanup includes appropriate material decisions and surface cleaning.
Who authorizes storm water in basement cleanup in a rental?
The property owner or authorized manager usually approves structural work. Tenants should report damage promptly.
