(KNZA)--The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has rescinded a boil water advisory for the Jefferson County community of Perry.

The advisory was issued September 1st because of a loss of pressure in the system.  Failure to maintain adequate pressure may result in a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination.

Laboratory testing samples collected from the city of Perry indicate no evidence of contamination, and all other conditions that placed the system at risk of contamination are deemed by KDHE officials to be resolved.
