(KNZA)---The Kansas Department of Health and Evironment has issued a boil water order for the Lakeside Village Improvement District located in Jefferson County.
The order was issued Thursday and replaces a boil water advisory issued in May of last year.
KDHE officials issued the order because of well flooding resulting in high turbidity and a loss of pressure in the system. Failure to maintain adequate pressure may result in a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination.
KDHE says customers should boil the water they use for drinking or food preparation prior to use or use bottled water.
The boil order will remain in effect until further notice.
