SHREVEPORT WATER – As of Tuesday afternoon, a little under 12,000 Shreveport residents were still experiencing water service disruptions as the city water department was working to make repairs on more than 70 water main breaks caused by last week’s freezing temperatures. During the city council meeting yesterday Mayor Adrian Perkins said those residents are expected to have some water pressure restored soon. Shreveport Water & Sewerage Director William Daniel told the city council that as water service is restored, customers may experience some odor to the water as it is being treated as a precaution.
"We're going to add some chlorine to the water out of abundant precaution," William Daniel, Director for Shreveport Water & Sewerage Department
