The Village of New Lexington Water Department advises all water customers to boil their water until further notice following a water main break.

Officials ask that customers boil water vigorously for at least one minute, any water used for drinking (including water used to make ice), cooking or oral hygiene.

At this time the Water Department said there is no evidence of the water system being contaminated, but the possibility does exist. The advisory is in effect until further notice and is a precaution.

The Water Department said some customers experienced low pressure or no pressure while repairs were made and pressure should be restored shortly.

An additional notice will be given when the boil advisory is lifted. For further information contact the Village of New Lexington at (740) 342-1633.
