Water Treatment Barriers Provide Drinking Water Protection
GREENWOOD, IND. ― (March 13, 2020) ― At Indiana American Water, the health and safety of our customers, communities and employees is our top priority. We provide an essential service that is critically important and like many other companies in the U.S. and across the globe, Indiana American Water has established coronavirus preparedness plans.
It is important for you to know that Indiana American Water’s drinking water treatment barriers provide protection that includes filtration and disinfection of our surface water supplies (e.g., those from lakes, reservoirs, or rivers) and disinfection of our ground water sources (e.g., underground wells). These treatments are effective in removing and/or inactivating viruses. Our water meets all current federal and state drinking water requirements.
To minimize the risk of exposure to the coronavirus (COVID-19), we have initiated our business continuity plans to help provide additional stability to our operations that include water/wastewater services to your homes and businesses.
Indiana American Water continues to monitor situational updates provided by the Center for Disease Control, and the World Health Organization as well as other state and federal organizations. We are continuously evaluating the situation and latest developments to determine how we can adopt and amend measures, as necessary, to support our customers and communities we serve and our employees.

In an effort to keep our customers safe during the coronavirus pandemic, Indiana American Water will be placing a moratorium and discontinuing service shut offs at this time. We will continue to evaluate this moratorium as more information becomes available. Additionally, Indiana American Water will begin the restoration of service to previously shut-off customers. The restoration may take some time, but we will work as quickly and safely as possible. If your service has been turned off, prior to March 12, 2020, we will restart your service.
Indiana American Water has been focused on two high priorities as the spread of the coronavirus has evolved - the health and safety of our employees and the health and safety of our customers. As such, Indiana American Water will also be suspending all non-essential field appointments and will limit the amount and nature of contact with customers during all emergency field appointments.
