Sellersburg Water Issues 24-Hour Precautionary Boil Advisory Following Water Main Incident
Sellersburg, IN – April 14, 2026 – Sellersburg Water 24-hour Precautionary Boil Advisory for portions of its service area following a water main incident earlier today in Jeffersonville.
The boil advisory will be in effect beginning at 3:30 p.m. on April 14, 2026, and will remain in place for 24 hours. It applies to all Sellersburg Water customers located north of I-265, as well as customers on Coopers Lane and Teakwood Landing Drive in Jeffersonville.
At approximately 12:45 p.m., a contractor reported striking a water main near a wooded area in the vicinity of 2950 Veterans Parkway. The affected main is a critical transmission line that delivers water from the Sellersburg Water Plant on Holmans Lane to the Town of Sellersburg’s water storage tanks.
In response, crews immediately isolated a 200-foot section of the main to begin repairs. Water service was maintained for all customers, and no outages were reported.
However, due to the potential for water pressure in the affected section to have dropped below 20 PSI, Sellersburg Water has issued a precautionary advisory in accordance with safety protocols.
The advisory does not include customers located along Holmans Lane or Allison Lane, nor those in the Oak Park, Fields of Lancassange, or Riverside neighborhoods.
Customers in the affected areas are advised to boil water intended for drinking or cooking for at least one minute before use during the advisory period.
Sellersburg Water will conduct testing to confirm water quality and will notify customers when the advisory has been lifted.
For additional information, customers may contact the Sellersburg Billing Office at (812) 246-3821 Ext. 1 during business hours or Ext. 5 for after-hours emergency assistance.
