Part of DeSoto Parish under boil order | Environment

Folks who get their water from the South DeSoto Water System are under a boil order until further notice.

A release from the water system says there is an electrical problem which is causing the pumps to cut off for brief periods of time.

Customers are asked to boil their water for at least one minute before using it. This does not apply to water used for showering or laundry.
