STATE OFFICE CLOSURE - INCLEMENT WEATHER
Commissioner of Administration Taylor Barras is announcing that all state offices in Cameron Parish will be closed Wednesday, June 17, 2026 and Thursday, June 18, 2026, due to the impending tropical storm.
All agency heads are responsible for determining those essential personnel who should remain on duty, report for duty, or those who should report to alternate work sites as necessary. Officials continue to monitor conditions throughout the state, and this announcement may be updated.
This office closure applies to all nonessential employees, including those authorized to work from home.
The Public Health Assessment Program reviews soil, sediment, water, and air data collected from facilities and communities where chemical releases have occurred. The Louisiana Department of Health, Office of Public Health's Section of Environmental Epidemiology and Toxicology (SEET) does this by:
determining whether the public is being exposed to contamination from a site,
evaluating potential links between site contaminants and community health, and
educating affected communities and local health professionals about site contamination and potential health effects.
Some of the sites that LDH’s APPLETREE program assesses are on the National Priorities List (NPL) of the sites in most need of investigation and cleanup.

Children are more vulnerable to chemical exposures than adults because they are smaller and still developing. The Choose Safe Places for Early Care and Education (CSPECE) Program teaches early child care and education center owners and operators how to look for potential sources of chemical exposures as they decide where to open new childcare sites
Information about CSPECE and resources for child care owners and operators are available at LDH’s CSPECE Homepage. Additional resources are available through the ATSDR’s CSPECE homepage.
