Citizens Water seeks IDEM construction permit for Lafayette Road 2‑MG tank and booster station
The Indiana Department of Environmental Management on Oct. 21, 2026, published a public notice that Citizens Water Indianapolis has applied for a construction permit to build a 2 MG elevated storage tank and booster pump station along Lafayette Road; public comments are due by Nov. 20, 2026.

The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) issued a public notice on 2026-10-21 saying it has received a construction permit application from Citizens Water Indianapolis (public water system 5249004) for the Lafayette Road Booster Station and Tank project. The proposal calls for construction of a 2 MG (2‑million‑gallon) elevated storage tank and a booster pump station.
IDEM’s notice identifies the project location as along Lafayette Road just south of the intersection with W. 56th Street and labels the work as Project P. If IDEM issues the permit, the agency says the permit will become effective on its date of issuance and will be made available through IDEM’s virtual file cabinet for public review and download (per the notice).
