Lipsey has provided FEMA tens of millions of gallons of water for relief operations. The company has been praised for its highly successful efforts in forming "a core of vital supply for the people of America" by the United States Army Corps of Engineers.

The water will be bottled in various sizes. AMW's Jacksonville plant will service the southeastern region of the United States which includes Mississippi, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Louisiana and Alabama. AMW's Phoenix plant will service Lipsey in Arizona, Texas, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah and California.
