Advisory

The Town is asking that water not be used by residents and businesses. Resources are available at Open Range Fellowship 9950 Hwy. 80

The Town of Greenwood is asking that residents DISCONTINUE ALL WATER USAGE IMMEDIATELY. If residents continue using water sources, it will extend our outage. While we work to restore water pressure for the town, we are offering the following resources to residents:

Portable Washing Machines
Portable Showers
Drinking Water
Non-Potable Water (for flushing/hygeine)

All water resources are located at Open Range Fellowship Cowboy Church @ 9950 Highway 80 in Greenwood, LA. Residents are able to access from 5am to 10pm daily. The National Guard will be on site for traffic control.

We have drinking water to distribute and are currently able to provide one (1) case of bottled water per vehicle, while supplies last.

Non-potable water (for flushing/hygeine) is also available. Please bring your own containers for transport, such as a 5 gallon bucket, ice chest, water jugs, plastic containers, etc.

Each day we move closer to restoration of the Town’s water system. It is important that we raise the water pressure at a rate that does not damage our infrastructure.

RESIDENTS SHOULD REPORT ANY KNOWN LEAKS as soon as possible by calling the GREENWOOD EMERGENCY WATER LINE at 318-208-4693. Greenwood is a strong community and we will get through this together. We look forward to seeing relief for our town and thank you for your continued support.

*limit on laundry = 1 load per household per day
