The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) has issued a boil water advisory for a portion of the City of Robinson located in Brown County.
This will affect all customers located along Main street and to the west of Main Street.
Dispose of ice cubes and do not use ice from a household automatic icemaker.
Water used for bathing does not generally need to be boiled.
Supervision of children is necessary while bathing so that water is not ingested.
Persons with cuts or severe rashes may wish to consult their physicians.
If your tap water appears dirty, flush the water lines by letting the water run until it clears.
KDHE officials issued the advisory because of a loss of pressure.
Failure to maintain adequate pressure may result in a loss of chlorine residuals and bacterial contamination.
Restaurants and other food establishments that have questions about the impact of the boil water advisory on their business can contact the Kansas Department of Agriculture’s food safety & lodging program at kda.fsl@ks.gov or call 785-564-6767.
