A ban on drinking water consumption has been in effect since today in the municipalities of Saint Martin de Fugères, Salettes, and the villages of Crouzet and Eygageyres (Chadron), following a water quality control by the ARS services.

Personnel intervened today to drain the network and carry out a total disinfection to minimize risks as much as possible.
The ARS services will conduct a re-test this Friday, and we will inform you as soon as normal service resumes.
Bottled water will be available at the Town Hall of Saint Martin and Salettes starting tomorrow morning, at a rate of one bottle per person per day.
The ban order for water consumption is attached.
