BATON ROUGE The Cadeville Water District in Ouachita Parish has been awarded $1.46 million by the Louisiana Department of Health’s Drinking Water Revolving Loan Fund Program to consolidate with the Robinson Chapel Water System in Jackson Parish to provide safer, quality drinking water to customers in the service area.
According to a news release from the Drinking Water Revolving Loan Fund, customers will see a reduction in their monthly water rates with the consolidation. Currently, Robison Chapel water customers are paying $25 per month, but that will be reduced to $19 per month once the connection to the Cadeville Water District’s system is completed.
