Plant Operator Josh Butts appears on the February edition of St. Charles Parish Today to highlight the West Bank clarifier refurbishment project currently underway. That works helps St. Charles Parish take care of its water.

HAHNVILLE — A sample of water taken from the West Bank of St. Charles Parish was named the best tasting water in the South Central Region on Wednesday.

The South Central Region includes Assumption, St. James, St. John the Baptist, St. Mary, Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes.

The officers of the region choose the winners.

The sample is set to compete at the state level next week at the annual Louisiana Conference on Water Supply, Sewerage and Industrial Wastes, Inc in Baton Rouge.

In addition to the South Central Region, the statewide contest includes Northwest, Northeast, Central, Lake Area, Southwest, Capital and Southeast regions.
