Elton, La – The Town of Elton in Jeff Davis Parish has issued a boil water advisory.

The advisory has been issued as a result of low pressure in the town’s water system. The boil advisory will be in place until further notice.

A reminder of what to do during a boil advisory:

Boil water for one (1) full minute in a clean container. the one minute starts after the water has been brought to a full rolling boil. (the flat taste can be eliminated by shaking the water in a clean bottle, pouring it from a clean container to another, or by adding a small pinch of salt to each quart of water that is boiled.)
