Motorists beware: Part of East St. Bernard Highway will be shut down for a
coupe of hours Wednesday morning.

The highway will be closed from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. for a drill at the
Murphy Oil refinery in Meraux, authorities said. 

The St. Bernard Parish Sheriff's Office, Fire Department and the parish's
office of Homeland Security will also participate in the drill, which will
include a simulated lightning strike on a storage tank at the refinery.

Motorists will be re-routed from the closed section of East St. Bernard
Highway.
