The Bossier Parish Consolidated Waterworks/Sewerage District No. 1 has issued a boil
water advisory this afternoon for the Village Water System, affecting homes located off
Hwy 164 in Haughton.
The advisory follows the discovery of a water main leak on a two-inch water line in the
400 block of Hwy 164. As a precaution, water service was temporarily shut off while
crews isolated the break and completed necessary repairs to the system.
Until further notice, affected residents are advised to take the following precautions:
Boil water for at least one minute before drinking or using it.
Use boiled or bottled water for drinking, cooking, brushing teeth, and food
preparation
The Louisiana Department of Health is currently testing water samples to ensure the
system meets safety standards. The boil advisory will remain in effect until test results
confirm the water is safe for normal use. Residents will be notified as soon as the
advisory is lifted.
