City of Thibodaux – Suspended: Emergency Response Fuel Station

The City of Thibodaux would like to thank both Commissioner Jay Dardenne and Commissioner Mike Strain for their initiative to supply essential employees in our community with fuel for their cars and generators. At this time, the initial delivery of fuel has run out at the City of Thibodaux’s Public Works Barn and there are no more deliveries planned to be scheduled in the future. The City of Thibodaux would like to thank our partners at Chevron for their donation that helped approximately 451 essential employees receive 8,787 gallons of fuel. Now that many of the fuel stations in Thibodaux are opening back up, we believe areas in South Lafourche would better benefit from an Emergency Response Fuel Point. The City of Thibodaux is committed to working with the Commissioners to get this set up for South Lafourche as soon as possible.

Attachment: City of Thibodaux - Zone Map

Storm debris that started on Sunday, September 5, 2021, in Zones 1 & 5 of the map below continues and debris clean up has started in the additional zones as well. Avoid placing storm debris under overhead obstructions such as utility lines and streetlights. Debris should be separated into the following three separate piles to improve the debris removal efficiency. 

1) Construction Materials/C&D (roofing, sheetrock, wood with nails, screws, brackets, etc. 

2) Vegetation/Trees (tree limbs, branches, shrubs, bare lumber, leaves). Avoid the usage of plastic trash bags.

3) White Goods/Appliances (refrigerators, freezers, AC units, dishwashers, etc.)

Residents are asked to NOT place green waste (vegetation/trees) in bags because the debris clean-up crews will not pick it up if they don’t know what it is.

Regularly scheduled trash pickup has resumed with limited service. This is the blue Pelican waste bin and should NOT include storm debris. Please ensure to keep waste bins by the road, since they may not be following their normal garbage pick-up schedule.

It is the responsibility of contractors to remove the debris associated with their work.
