BCHOA Water System Flushing
Our local St. Tammany Fire District 4 is required by the Property Insurance Association of Louisiana to test water system fire hydrants for operational and water flow capabilities on a yearly basis. Information recorded is used in part to determine our Fire Insurance rating assessment. This rate will determine what our citizens and businesses will actually pay on their insurance.
Starting Monday, April 17th thru Friday, April 28th, the Beau Chene Homeowners Association will flush our water system by releasing water from fire hydrants, as necessary, to remove loose mineral deposits from the system prior to the high flows involved with fire district testing. Flushing operations will be performed between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 5:30 a.m.
If, as a result of either our flushing or fire district testing, you should experience deposits in your water, please open outside faucets and run them slowly until your system is clear. Repeat this process if sediments are present in your indoor faucets. Problems with deposits should be minimal because the water has been treated since 1996 for mineral deposit sequestering.
Very Truly Yours,
David Vinson
Public Works Director

Dear Homeowners and Residents:
Re: Tete L’Ours Drive Culvert Replacement Project on Tuesday, September 27, 2022
Our Public Works staff are working on a project to replace a culvert (drainage pipe) that is approximately 35-40 years old. The culvert being replaced runs under Tete L’Ours Drive between the two driveways into Grand Cheniere Condos.
The work will include:
Removal of a section of the asphalt road and old culvert underneath road
Installation of new Contech A-2000 LADOTD approved pipe
Fill in and pack with limestone and clay material and allow to compact. During compaction the road will be fully opened.
The final step is to replace the asphalt roadway section either later this year or early next year.
All work progress will be subject to weather conditions. One lane will remain open at all times. Residents and guests will need to drive cautiously and obey the instructions of flagmen directing traffic.
Should you have any questions or concerns regarding these projects, please contact Lindsey Adkins at 985-231-6285.
Sincerely,
Cristina Donovan
CAO
