Hamilton County Water Boil Advisory<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

As a result of the White River North water treatment\nfacility losing a nominal amount of pressure, Indiana American Water placed a\nwater boil advisory for its customers. During the precautionary advisory, Indiana\nAmerican Water completed a series of tests to verify that their water again meets\nregulatory drinking water standards. Customers of Citizens were not affected by\nthe treatment facility\u2019s equipment malfunctions, and were not included in the cross-county\nadvisory. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a standard, set and regulated by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management, that mandates water treatment companies to issue a water boil advisory when water pressure levels drop to a certain, specified value. According to the IDEM, if water pressure drops below 20 pounds per square inch in any part of a municipal water distribution system, a boil advisory must be issued. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a Boil Advisory?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

When a water treatment company issues a boil advisory, they are\nsuggesting boiling your tap water before ingesting it via drinking and cooking.\nAlthough it is acceptable to use water for bathing, washing, and similar uses,\nit is not recommended to drink or consume it until the ban is officially lifted.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pay Attention to Your Water Quality<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
