TOPEKA – The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) has rescinded a boil water advisory for the City of Baldwin
City public water supply located in Douglas County.
The advisory was issued
because
of a loss of pressure. Failure to maintain adequate pressure may result
in a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination.
Public
water suppliers in Kansas take all measures necessary to notify
customers quickly after a system failure or shutdown. Regardless of
whether it’s the supplier or KDHE
that announces a boil water advisory, KDHE will issue the rescind order
following testing at a certified laboratory.
