South Lawrence Utilities Flushing Water Lines

(MITCHELL) – South Lawrence Utilities is flushing water lines to eliminate discolored water from the system.

The utility has notified IDEM of the issue to make them aware.

Residents are asked to run the cold water to help clear customer lines and let the utility know what areas that are experiencing the problem. The utility phone number is 812-849-5544.
