GG Is Traveling!

Posted: June 19th, 2009, by editor

The Gazebo Gazette is going on our honeymoon! Evelina will be traveling through July 3, so there will be no GG published on June 26 & July 3 (see below for the June 12 & June 19 issues — I just posted them).

However, there will be someone in the office (212 East Second Street, Suite D, Pass Christian) from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Monday-Thursday, June 22-June 25, and Monday and Tuesday, June 29 & June 30, also from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.

You can also leave a voicemail message; someone will be checking them and will get back to you as soon as possible: 228-363-1973.

Also, you can send an email to editor@gazebogazette.com, and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

Thank you!

Evelina (Editor & Publisher & Newlywed)

East End Well Update: Thursday, June 18

Posted: June 19th, 2009, by editor

WPSCO’s Bruce Anthony said this week that the east end well should be producing water by the end of this week. Then the water department will conduct the required two days of testing, “so by some time mid-week next week, we should be pumping water in the system,” and the well should be back in working order by the end of the week, he said.

The brown water people are experiencing, particularly on the east end of town, is due to the natural coloration of the water. “It is not harmful,” he said. “We have maintained high enough chlorine levels for the water to be safe.”

Mr. Anthony also noted that all three city wells are going to be rebuilt by FEMA, so there will be periods in the coming months when there will be only two wells again and the same coloration problem will occur.
