City of Monroe Addresses Water Pressure Fluctuations Near Airport and Surrounding Areas

Monday, January 8, 2024 - 10:00am

(Monroe, LA) - Residents and businesses in the vicinity of the airport, Millhaven Road, Pecanland Mall, and Delta Community College have been experiencing water pressure fluctuations. The Selman Water Tank, which is located in the area, recently developed a crack necessitating immediate repair. This tank helps to enhance water pressure and while it is out of service for repairs, there may be ongoing water pressure fluctuations in the area. The City of Monroe plans to address the water pressure issues by operating the Water Treatment Plant at higher pressure levels.

The City understands this creates potential challenges for residents and businesses. Public Works is focusing efforts on completing the repairs as soon as possible. We estimate that it will take approximately two months to complete these repairs.

The City sincerely appreciates the understanding and patience of our valued residents and businesses as we work diligently to restore normal water pressure levels. The Water Treatment Operations is available to address any questions or concerns that arise during this period.

The City of Monroe remains committed to maintaining the highest standards of service and ensuring the well-being of our community.
