The city of Humboldt in southeast Kansas asked residents in a public notice Thursday afternoon to conserve water.
“Due to a chemical spill in the Neosho River, the City of Humboldt will not be processing water until the threat has passed,” the notice said. “… Please do not fill containers. Limit water use to essential use. The water in our water towers is safe but in limited supply.”
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment said in a news release that the conservation notice includes Allen County Rural Water Districts 9 and 10. The Humboldt Water Plant shut its intake down on Wednesday “as a precaution following possible contamination to the Neosho River,” KDHE officials said.
