(KAIR)--The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has rescinded a boil water advisory for the City of Effingham in Atchison County.

That word came Thursday in a news release issued by the agency.

The advisory was issued Tuesday because of unknown water quality in the distribution system due to a power outage.

KDHE says laboratory testing samples collected from the City of Effingham indicate no evidence of bacteriological contamination and all other conditions that placed the system at risk of contamination are deemed to be resolved.
