Boil water advisory rescinded in Mandeville area
A boil water advisory that had been in place since Monday for several Mandeville-area neighborhoods was rescinded Wednesday morning.
The neighborhoods affected by the boil water advisory included The Woodlands, Quail Creek, Forest Brook, Grand Terre, Emerald Pines, Casa Bella, Remington Court, Woodlands Terrace, as well as addresses on Viola and Soult streets.
The advisory was put in place on Monday after a communications contractor laying fiber in the Woodlands Subdivision hit an 8-inch water main, which caused water pressure to drop there and in surrounding areas.
The advisory was called out of an abundance of caution and in accordance with the Louisiana Department of Health (LDH) regulations.
Tammany Utilities, which provides water to the affected areas, received confirmation from the LDH Wednesday morning that samples from the Briarwood Terrace Water System are clear and that water was safe for consumption.

Businesses in Mount Pleasant Under Boil Water Advisory After Water Main Break
Businesses in Isabella County still under a boil water advisory after a water main break.
Around 8:30 Monday morning people in Mount Pleasant noticed water covering downtown streets.
Others say they saw the asphalt bulging from the pressure.
The water main break happened on the corner of East Broadway and North Franklin Street.
The Mount Pleasant Water Department says a bolt rotted away allowing the water main seal to shift and the gasket to come apart.
The city will perform two water sampling tests while nearby businesses are under a 48 hour boil water advisory.
To get a closer look at the water main the water had to be shut off which was an inconvenience for a downtown hair salon.
“We’re kind of a water business.
So we kind of need water but a lot of people don’t mind shampooing their own hair and coming in and having you do it so that’s all but we can’t take color off or do any of that stuff so that’s pretty important,” said Headliners hairdresser, Cindi Verway.
The water main is now fixed and the roads are open.
