Elliott Street
Water tests clean
Alexandria, La. (October 22, 2024)
The boil advisory issued Friday, October 18, 2024 for Elliott
Street area is now lifted. Repairs to a 6 inch water main made by COA personnel resulted in the
need for a boil water advisory. The State of Louisiana has tested the water, and the results of
the tests are clear, according to Superintendent of Water Operations, Barrett Dezendorf.
The Alexandria Water Department has lifted the boil advisory for businesses and residents
located in the area described below:
All the properties along Elliott Street (Please see attached detail map).
With the lifting of the boil advisory, the City of Alexandria now recommends that businesses and
residences in the affected areas:
• Run cold-water faucets for one minute;
• Run drinking water fountains for one minute;
• Flush automatic icemakers (make three batches of ice and discard);
• Run water softeners through a regeneration cycle; and
• Run water coolers with direct water connections for five minutes.
