FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BOIL ADVISORY HAS BEEN LIFTED FOR CITY LIMITS

NATCHITOCHES – The City of Natchitoches’ Distribution System would like to notify the public the Boil Advisory issued for the Natchitoches city limits with the exception of Highway 6 West and the I-49 corridor on Wednesday, February 17, 2021 has been lifted.  The Louisiana Department of Health collected a sample of water from the area on Wednesday, February 24, 2021 and notified the City of Natchitoches on Thursday, February 25, 2021 the water was safe for human consumption and use.

At this time, samples have been collected and we are awaiting results for Waterworks District 1, Highway 6 West and the I-49 Corridor. Until further notice, customers in those areas should still adhere to the boil advisory. The public will be notified when the boil advisory is lifted.

The City of Natchitoches appreciates the public’s patience during this time.
