The sun is out and the storm has passed. It is time to clean up around the neighborhood, but what about the sandbags?

According to Lafayette Consolidated Government (LCG), over 135,000 sandbags were distributed in Lafayette Parish in preparation of Tropical Storm Barry. Now what?
Since hurricane season runs from June through November, citizens are encourage to keep those sandbags on hand for other potential storms this hurricane season. For best results, sandbags should be stored in a dry place out of the sun. Remember, keeping these sandbags for reuse saves resources, time and money.
Sandbags can be returned to the LCG Compost Facility located at 400 Dugas Rd. (off North University Ave.) or the South Barn at 1017 Fortune Road in Youngsville.
