NEW ORLEANS — The Sewerage and Water Board has canceled the precautionary boil water advisory for limited parts of New Orleans East.
The canceled boil water advisory includes all of Oak Island subdivisions, and a portion of the Michoud area including Red Maple Drive, Maplewood Drive, Bayou Michoud to Dwyer Road, Dwyer Road to Kim Drive, and Kim Drive to the levee.
Water pressures in the area fell below 20psi due to a struck fire hydrant in New Orleans East on Caddo Place near Michoud Blvd.
Customers who have not used their water supply during this precautionary boil water advisory are advised to flush their internal and external plumbing by running water through their system for several minutes.
