The Sewerage and Water Board of New Orleans (SWBNO), in consultation with the Louisiana Department of Health (LDH), has canceled the precautionary boil water advisory for the areas within New Orleans East and Venetian Isles which included:

-New Orleans East: Old Gentilly Rd from Jourdan Rd to Elaine St, Elaine St to Intracoastal Waterway, Intracoastal Waterway to Jourdan Rd 

-New Orleans East: Hayne Blvd from Lucerne St to Wave Dr, Wave Dr to Morrison Ave, Morrison Ave from Wave Dr to Lucerne St, Lucerne St to Hayne Blvd 

-New Orleans East: All Venetian Isles 

Water pressures in these areas fell below 20 pounds per square inch (psi) due to a power surge at the Carrollton Water Treatment plant. We are still investigating the source of the power surge.

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.
