(KAIR)--Atchison’s water may taste, or smell different, but it’s perfectly safe to consume.
That word is delivered in a release from the City of Atchison, explaining that the City’s water treatment plant “is temporarily changing to a free chlorine disinfection process.” The release states that the change is being made while one of the rural water districts, served by the City, performs system maintenance.
According to the release, while the “switch to free chlorine is a result of the needed repairs for that customer, it is a common practice that the City undertakes within the normal maintenance program for the water distribution system.”
The change, meaning that water “customers may detect a difference in taste or smell,” is expected to last for one week.
