Alexandria, La. (February 21, 2021) — Continuing water conservation efforts are needed to complete the recovery of the city’s water system. “Thanks to the help of our residents, we are slowly seeing improvement in our efforts to refill our water storage tanks,” said Alexandria Mayor Jeff Hall. “Residents can see the improved water pressure when they turn on their faucets. But it is important that everyone understands that while things are better, we are not at full strength. Our elevated tanks are slowly refilling, but they are not back where they need to be yet and overall water pressure is...
Alexandria, La. (February 20, 2021) — City of Alexandria officials continue to ask all water customers to use as little water as possible until further notice as the city works to refill water tanks and restore water pressure. “We are grateful to everyone who has stepped up by eliminating or reducing their water use. You are making a difference,” said Alexandria Mayor Jeff Hall. “The system is slowly starting to stabilize, but it is still extremely fragile.

Alexandria, La. (February 19, 2021) — City of Alexandria officials are asking residents and area businesses to use as little water as possible until further notice as the city works to refill water tanks and restore water pressure. “Power has been restored to all of our water wells, and we are generating three times the amount of water we normally generate daily, but it’s not enough to outpace demand like we need it to,” said Alexandria Mayor Jeff Hall. “We really need folks to eliminate their use of water until we can get the supply built back up. We need to do this not only to get water...
Power has been restored to most of the water wells and we are working to refill tanks and increase pressure. Please continue to conserve water. If you have a broken water pipe and need help to get it turned off, please call 318-473-1264. The city-wide boil advisory remains in effect.
