Columbus City Utilities has issued a precautionary boil water advisory for customers in the area of Eighth and Chestnut streets.
This precautionary measure is necessary due to a shutdown associated with emergency pipe repairs.
Customers are asked to boil cooking and drinking water for 5 minutes until notified that the water has passed laboratory testing.
The boil water advisory will be in effect starting at 1:30 p.m. today and customers will be notified when it will be lifted.
Customers who have provided phone numbers to the utility will receive robocalls.
All customers affected will receive a door hanger notice prior to, and upon completion of the testing.
Columbus City Utilities appreciates everyone’s cooperation during this activity.
Anyone with additional questions can call the Water Service Hotline at 812-418-6435.
