Denham Springs, LA (WAFB) – A boil water advisory has been issued by Ward Two Water District for an area near Denham Springs.

The advisory was issued Thursday after experiencing problems with the water supply system because of a cut water main on Lockhart Road.

The advisory was only for customers in the area on Lockhart Road between Dunn Road and Cockerham Road. However, officials said it does not include Dunn Road.

Water users in the affected area are asked to boil any water that is to be used for human consumption.

The boil advisory will be rescinded once officials are notified by the Louisiana Department of Health that the water is safe again.
