(BLOOMINGTON) – City of Bloomington Utilities (CBU) crews are repairing damage to a water main on North Old State Road 37, near the East Bethel Lane intersection.
95 customers were disconnected from the water service on Thursday afternoon. Those customers are now under a precautionary Boil Water Advisory.
Unless otherwise notified, the precautionary Boil Water Advisory will be lifted at 2 p.m. on Friday, November 15.
The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) requires all public water systems to issue a Boil Water Advisory when the pressure drops below 20 psi in the water main.
Those affected should follow the instructions below:
- Immediately after your normal water pressure is restored, run COLD water from a sink or tub until clear water flows from the faucet.
- Boil drinking water for at least 5 minutes prior to consumption.
- It is recommended that all water used for drinking, cooking, and oral hygiene be brought to a full boil for FIVE minutes. It is not necessary to boil water for other uses.
Please see the City of Bloomington Utilities website at bloomington.in.gov/utilities for a list of affected addresses. If you have questions or concerns, please contact the City of Bloomington Utilities at 812-339-1444.
