The Boil Advisory issued by the Chatham Water System that was in effect for the New Hope St. Clair Water System customers has been lifted by the Louisiana Department of Health and Office of Public Health. 

Chatham Mayor Gregory Harris lifted the order after receiving the following notification on Thursday, June 22nd. 

The Louisiana Department of Health/Office of Public Health hereby rescinds the partial boil advisory issued by the Chatham Water System. The samples collected on 6/20/2023 cleared today.

Please find attached your water system’s copy of the sample results as received from the Office of Public Health (OPH) laboratory for Revised Total Coliform Rule compliance. These PDFs, provided by email, must be printed and retained by the water system. Since these files contain a record of a chemical analysis (as well as the bacteriological analysis), they must be kept for not less than 10 years [pursuant to the requirements of 40 CFR 141.33(a)]. Compliance with this requirement will continue to be checked by staff during sanitary survey visits.

Sincerely,
Tyler Lollis, P.E.
