(KAIR)--A Boil Water Advisory has been issued for the City of Atchison.
According to a news release, the advisory took effect Thursday afternoon, following a water main break under the 5th Street viaduct in the immediate vicinity of the Blish Mize parking lot.
The advisory will remain in effect until the conditions that placed the system at risk of bacterial contamination are resolved. Failure to maintain adequate pressure may result in a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination.
The advisory will not be rescinded by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment until testing is conducted at a certified laboratory.
Water customers should boil all water intended to be consumed for one minute prior to use.
