BLOOMINGTON, Ind. —
Some customers of Bloomington's municipal water utility are under a boil water advisory.
A water main break on West Sierra Drive was under repair Thursday. The City of Bloomington Utilities then issued a precautionary boil water advisory for the customers disconnected during that repair.
The advisory will expire at 10 a.m. Saturday, June 20 unless extended.
The utility offered these instructions for affected customers:
Immediately after your normal water pressure is restored, run COLD water from a sink or tub until clear water flows from the faucet.
Boil all water used for drinking, cooking, and oral hygiene for at least 5 minutes prior to consumption.
It is not necessary to boil water for other uses.
Customers who subscribed to Monroe County Alerts will be directly notified.
Bloomington Utilities can be reached by phone at (812) 339-1444.
