Meet the new year. Same as the old year

We're back. We're still doing the things.



Update: If you have any information about the bird and/or small furry animals responsible, please contact the authorities

A spokesperson for Entergy New Orleans told WWL Louisiana, “This morning, NOFD responded to a fire at an Entergy substation in Algiers. This created an outage currently impacting approximately 9400 customers. Entergy crews are working as quickly and safely as possible to restore service.”

The cause is under investigation, according to Entergy and officials say no known environmental concerns at this time.

Upperdate: Ah yes, of course there is more

The outage has affected the Wastewater Treatment Plant and Sewer Pumping Stations on the West Bank. According to the Sewerage and Water Board of New Orleans, flow to the plant has stopped because the sewer pumping stations are offline. 

The S&WB claims the stations do not have backup power onsite working to mobile generators and pumps to the stations. The S&WB is asking West Bank customers to be mindful of their water and wastewater usage, and to conserve as much as possible.
