Not a repeat: Contractor hits water line, sets off boil advisory for same Slidell neighborhood

Not a repeat: Contractor hits water line, sets off boil advisory for same Slidell neighborhood
St. Tammany Parish

About 10,000 customers of the Cross Gates Water system in the Slidell area are being cautioned to boil their water, after a contractor working on fiber cable hit a water main.

This exact same thing happened last week on March 7.


"A contractor performing work for Vexus Fiber hit a water main in the Cross Gates Water System in Slidell, causing a system-wide drop in pressure," St. Tammany Parish said in a news release. "Parish crews are actively working to make the repairs."

The parish will advise when the advisory is lifted.

The boil advisory last week lasted for a couple of days.
