BOIL ADVISORY ISSUED FOR THE TOWN OF PLAIN DEALING WATER SYSTEM
The Town of Plain Dealing has issued a boil advisory for their entire water system. The
advisory is for all Plain Dealing water customers.
The backup power supply failed to kick on during the strong storm in the early morning
hours. This left critical water treatment infrastructure without power, thus rendering them
inoperable. The backup power service company along with the main power providers have been
notified, and repair efforts have been coordinated.
The advisory is a precautionary measure and Plain Dealing recommends water customers
boil their water for one (1) minute before consuming it until the advisory is rescinded. The
advisory pertains only to water used for consumption. Again, the advisory is a precautionary
measure and not a boil order.
Water customers will be notified when the advisory is rescinded.
