(Updated) Boil advisory lifted

A boil advisory that went into effect Sunday for parts of St. Mary Parish has been lifted, according to Parish Waterworks District 5 President Glenn Blood.

The advisory covered areas from Calumet to the east side of Franklin. A power failure Sunday at a Cleco substation caused pressure to drop at the water treatment plant in Centerville, enough to cause the state Department of Health and Hospitals to require the district to issue a boil water notice, Blood said. A test of water samples found no contaminants, he said.

Patterson Mayor Rodney Grogan said the boil advisory didn't affect anyone who gets their water from the city of Patterson, which includes customers the city services outside of the city limits on Red Cypress Road.
