NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) – The Sewerage and Water Board is testing water samples to see if there’s a risk to residents after pressure dropped on the East Bank and a precautionary boil water advisory was issued Saturday morning (Nov. 17).
The advisory was still in effect Saturday night, impacting both residents and businesses.
“I call them curve balls,” Craig said.
When you’re doing business in New Orleans, Craig said there are certain challenges you learn how to manage.
"We buy gallons of water that we use in the back.
"At least we’re old pros at it now.
It’s not like, ‘oh, we have to close.’"
If that were the case, Craig said boil water advisories would have a crippling effect on the city’s biggest industry.
While a new water tower proved effective, pressure dropped due to power and the pumps.
“You need the water pressure where it’s supposed to be but you also need the power to work simultaneously and if either of those don’t work, you run into problems,” Giarrusso said.
