(KAIR)---A public health advisory has been lifted for Warnock Lake in Atchison County, while advisories remain in place for two other Atchison County Lakes due to the presence of blue-green algae.

That word came in a joint release Friday from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks.

Warnock Lake had been placed on the advisory list June 13.

The release says Atchison City Lake #9 remains under " warning" status, while the Atchison State Fishing Lake is under " watch" status.

The two lakes were placed on the advisory list June 6.

For lakes under " watch" status, KDHE recommends people avoid areas of algae accumulation and keep pets away from the water.

You should clean fish well with potable water and eat the fillet portion only.

For lakes under " warning" status, direct contact with the water should be avoided.

Fish may be eaten if they are rinsed with clean water. Only the fillet portion should be consumed, and all other parts discarded.
