LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Sellersburg residents are no longer under a boil water advisory.
The advisory was lifted on Nov. 18, days after it went into effect following a water main break on Nov. 13. The break left about 400 customers without water for nearly two days. About 40-50 businesses were among those who lost power.
Town officials said a company installing digital fiber hit a primary water line along U.S. 31, near Broadway, destroying about 30 feet of it.
