ELK CITY, Kan. – The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) rescinds a boil water advisory for the City of Elk City, Kansas. KDHE issued the advisory because of a line break resulting in a loss of pressure in the distribution system.

Laboratory testing samples collected from the Elk City indicated no evidence of bacteriological contamination and KDHE officials deemed all other conditions that placed the system at risk of contamination to be resolved.
