(KDHE)--A Boil Water Advisory is issued for the Jefferson County Rural Water District 10 public water supply system, located in Jefferson County.

Issued Tuesday by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, the agency, in a release, says the advisory was issued because of a line break resulting in a loss of pressure in the system, with KDHE explaining that “failure to maintain adequate pressure may result in a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination.”

The release notes that the boil water advisory “will remain in effect until the conditions that placed the system at risk of bacterial contamination are resolved.”

Customers of Jefferson County Rural Water District 10 are told to boil water for one minute prior to ingestion, or use bottled water.
