The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has issued a boil water advisory for the City of LaCygne public water supply systems located in Linn County.

 

Customers should boil water for one minute prior to drinking or food preparation, or use bottled water instead. Dispose of ice cubes from trays and automatic ice makers. If your tap water appears dirty, flush the water lines by letting the water run until it clears.

 Water used for bathing does not need to be boiled, but supervision of children is necessary while bathing so that water is not ingested.

 

KDHE officials issued the advisory because of a mechanical malfunction at the water treatment plant.

 

 The advisory will remain in effect until further notice.
