The boil advisory for the Industrial Street area in Alexandria, Louisiana, has been lifted. The advisory was initially issued on October 18, 2024, following repairs to a six-inch water main by City of Alexandria (COA) personnel. According to Barrett Dezendorf, Superintendent of Water Operations, "The State of Louisiana has tested the water, and the results of the tests are clear."
The advisory affected businesses and residents along Elliott Street. With its removal, the Alexandria Water Department advises those in the affected areas to take several precautionary measures. These include running cold-water faucets and drinking water fountains for one minute each, flushing automatic icemakers by making three batches of ice and discarding them, running water softeners through a regeneration cycle, and running water coolers with direct connections for five minutes.
For further information or inquiries regarding this matter, Barrett Dezendorf can be contacted at 318-441-6215 or via email at barrett.dezendorf@cityofalex.com.
