News Report
Wellington, Kansas, United States
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment issued a drinking water advisory to the City of Wellington, City of Mayfield, Sumner Co. Rural Water Districts 1, 2 and 3. Samples collected by the City of Wellington reported levels of a blue-green algae toxin called microcystins in drinking water delivered to consumers. For children over 6-years and adults the water remains acceptable for drinking, food preparation and all household use. Officials are advising residents NOT to boil the water before use as boiling will only concentrate the microcystin.Source: www.kfdi.com/2023/08/03/kdhe-issues-drinking-water-advisory-for-city-of-wellington/
