(KAIR)--The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has rescinded boil water advisories for the Atchison County community of Effingham and the Leavenworth County community of Linwood.
The boil advisory for Linwood was issued Friday and the advisory for Effingham on Sunday. Both were issued because of a loss of pressure due to a water line break. Failure to maintain adequate pressure may result in a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination.
KDHE said Tuesday in a news release that laboratory testing samples collected from both cities indicate no evidence of bacteriological contamination and all other conditions that placed the systems at risk of contamination are deemed by KDHE officials to be resolved.
