In Jefferson Parish, a collective sigh of relief can be heard as the mercury climbs back above the frost line. The Parish Water Department has issued a plea to residents: Stop the trickle-down. With the temperature now steadily rising, there's no longer a need to leave faucets dripping to prevent pipes from freezing. This tap dance was key for a hot minute, but it's time to change tune. It's all about the system – specifically, not overloading the water works.
For those whom concerns or service interruptions bubble up, the Jefferson Parish Water Department is only a phone call or email away. Details on how to contact the department can be found on their official website.
