Boil advisory rescinded for Atchison Co RWD 5C
01/06/2024

(KAIR)--The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has rescinded a boil water advisory issued for a portion of Atchison County Rural Water District 5C, located in Atchison County.

The advisory was issued Thursday because of a loss of pressure in the distribution system. Failure to maintain adequate pressure may put the system at risk for bacterial contamination.

The area affected by the boil advisory was generally bounded by Highway 73 on the north, County Road 214th on the south, Highway 159, Highway 9 and Hamilton Road on the west and Ottawa Road on the east.

KDHE in a release Saturday said laboratory testing samples collected from the water district distribution system indicate no evidence of bacteriological contamination and all other conditions that placed the system at risk of contamination are deemed to be resolved.
