Say what you want about New Orleans, at least the drinking water isn’t screwed.

Is this a joke? We have water boil advisories on a quarterly basis because the drinking water is totally screwed by neglected infrastructure.

[selimthegrim]

A boil advisory because of short periods of low pressure is one thing, needing RO because saltwater has infiltrated your aquifer (like what will happen in Miami) is another can of worms

I'd rather deal with saltwater intrusion than the NO SWB and mayor.

Wait? What?

Was that a joke?

I think we’re all just frustrated down here with the lack of transparency and employees literally sleeping on the job. I remember getting out of my car on Broad St in August 2017 during the flood and arguing with people in traffic in front of me about whether the pump house in front of me was working - they thought it was just another excuse for the city to take their money.
