Boil Water Advisory lifted for Atchison County RRWD 5C
11/16/2021

(KAIR)--A boil water advisory, issued for an Atchison County rural water district Sunday, has been lifted.

According to a release from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, the advisory, put in place for Atchison County Rural Water District 5C, was rescinded Tuesday because “laboratory testing samples collected from [the water district’s public water supply] indicate no evidence of bacteriological contamination and all other conditions that placed the system at risk of contamination are deemed by KDHE officials to be resolved.”

The advisory, which included the City of Lancaster, was issued due to a loss of pressure, because “failure to maintain adequate pressure may result in a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination.”
