(KAIR)--A boil water advisory, in place since last year for a Jefferson County community, has been rescinded.
According to a release from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, the City of Ozawkie had been under the advisory since May 11, 2019.
It was issued due to a flooded well which came as part of massive Missouri River flooding that began last spring.
The advisory was originally issued because flooding of a well may result in a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination. However, the release states that “laboratory testing samples collected from the City of Ozawkie 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.”
