OTTAWA (KSNT) – The City of Ottawa has lifted a mandatory boil water advisory for residents on city water in Franklin County.

The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) issued the ban on Saturday because of a loss of pressure that could cause a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination.

Laboratory testing samples collected from the City of Ottawa public water supply indicated no evidence of contamination.
