(KAIR)--Some Atchison water customers may notice changes in their water in the next few days as planned water tower maintenance may affect water pressure in areas around the tower.
According to a press release from Atchison Public Works and Utilities Director Justin Pregont, the area impacted is Grandeur Road to the east, Shannon Industrial Park to the west, 306th Road to the north and 274th road to the south.
Beginning Saturday, June 10 though June 17, the water tower just northwest of County Club and Pratt Roads will be under safety inspections.
Pregont said, McGuire Iron, a water tower maintenance company will work on behalf of the city to preform a series of safety and sanitation upgrades to the tower.
The work is designed to help balance the pressures in the immediate area around the tower as well as help to supply a steady volume of water to Rural Water District #5.
He stressed this type of work is normal, necessary and planned. Every precaution is being taken so the tower will only be out of service for a minimal amount of time.
Pregont if customers notice any change of significant nature or if you have any questions, to contact the Public Works Shop at (913)367-5561.
