September 28, 2026

To minimize the impact on residents, crews will be working overnight hours from 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM. During this period, customers may experience temporary drops in water pressure or notice cloudy water. It is strongly recommended that you check your water quality before cooking, drinking, or doing laundry.

Safety and Worker Awareness

‍The Water Department asks drivers and pedestrians to use extra caution when utility employees are working in the area. Flushing water through fire hydrants releases large volumes of water at high pressure, which can be dangerous to bystanders and employees alike. Please be courteous to our crews as they perform this essential maintenance.

Contact Information

‍If you experience persistent problems with your water quality, please contact the Loogootee Water Department office at 812-295-2497. For assistance after 4:00 PM, please call the Martin County Sherrif's Department.
