The Indiana Department of Environmental Management requires a boil water advisory to be issued when water main pressure drops below 20 PSI, which occurred during the break.

During the advisory, residents should boil all water used for drinking, cooking and oral hygiene for at least two minutes before use.

Once water pressure returns to normal, residents should immediately run cold water until clear water flows from the faucet.
