The scheduled time for repairs, which will cause low water pressure in the area, will be Wednesday night, March 2, 2022 and Thursday night, March 3, 2022 from the hours 12 midnight to 6 a.m. on both days. Repairs are expected to be complete by Friday morning, March 4, 2022 at 6 a.m.

This repair is necessary due to damage to the waterline as a result of Hurricane Ida winds. The Jefferson Parish Water Department was unable to find the damaged waterline until now, as this waterline travels through a wooded area in Jean Laffite State Park.
