Boil water advisory in effect for parts of Lafourche Parish

A boil water advisory has been issued for the northern part of Lafourche Parish, including West Thibodaux, after a damaged roof vent on an elevated water storage tank raised concerns about microbiological water quality. Residents are required to boil water for one minute before consumption or use. The advisory is a precautionary measure and will remain in effect until the Louisiana Department of Health confirms the water is safe.
