ST. TAMMANY PARISH, La. — The St. Tammany Parish Department of Utilities has issued a precautionary boil water advisory for residents who use the Briarwood Water System, which serves Western St. Tammany Parish.
The advisory comes after lightning struck an 8-inch main, causing a drop in water pressure.
Crews repaired the main Tuesday and provided water samples to the Louisiana Department of Health for testing. Parish officials say the advisory will remain in effect until the samples have returned clear.
