\nLouisville MSD is warning the public to avoid waterways in southern Jefferson County due to potential contamination from Tuesday\u2019s UPS plane crash.<\/p>\n

In a social media post on Friday, Louisville MSD stated that the potential contaminated runoff is primarily in Pond Creek, Northern Ditch and Southern Ditch.<\/p>\n

Louisville MSD also released a media advisory that stated the incident did not impact drinking water from Louisville Water Company unless you have been directly contacted by the company.<\/p>\n

MSD says they began monitoring nearby streams shortly after the crash on November 4 and took immediate action to absorb oil by deploying booms.<\/p>\n

A UPS contractor has begun the cleanup process. Anyone with questions about the cleanup is encouraged to refer to www.aboutups.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Anyone who sees oil, debris or discoloration in waterways is asked to call (502) 540-6000 or email customerrelations@LouisvilleMSD.org.
