(KAIR)--A boil water advisory has been issued for the Atchison County community of Effingham.

According to a post Monday on Atchison County Emergency Management's Facebook page, the city issued the advisory because of a loss of pressure due to a loss of supply in the city's water storage tank. That resulted in an interruption in water service resulting in little or no pressure, which could allow contamination of the distribution system.

The loss of pressure occurred on Sunday and the Kansas Department of Health and Environment was notified.

Customers served by the city of Effingham are advised to boil the water they use for drinking or food preparation for one minute prior to use or to use bottled water.

The boil advisory will remain in effect until further notice.
