A new CNG fueling station in Red River Parish is providing drivers who fuel their cars with compressed natural gas another place to fill up. The station is located at 1392 Hwy. 84 E. in Coushatta.

For the moment, that makes two operational CNG stations in northwest Louisiana, the other one being in Bossier City at the corner of Benton Rd. and Texas St. However at least seven more public CNG stations are set to open within the next nine months.

Because of problems with the water supply system, the East DeSoto Water System has put a boil advisory into place. The advisory will remain in effect until the water is deemed safe by the Department of Health and Hospitals.
