Boil water advisory lifted for Yates Center
YATES CENTER, Kan. (KSNW) — The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has lifted a boil water advisory for the City of Yates Center in Woodson County.
The advisory was originally issued due to a loss of pressure in the city's water system during hydrant flushing. A drop in pressure can lead to a loss of chlorine and increase the risk of bacterial contamination.

After conducting laboratory testing of water samples, KDHE confirmed there is no evidence of bacterial contamination, and all safety concerns have been resolved.
Residents with questions can contact the Yates Center water system at 620-625-2102 or KDHE at 785-296-5514. Additional information is available at
