    Stream advisory rescinded for Verdigris River in Kansas

    2024-05-02

    KANSAS (KOAM) -- A stream advisory for Verdigris River east of Neodesha, Kansas has been rescinded.

    According to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE), the stream advisory was a result of an oil spill around 500 feet from the Verdigris River.

    KDHE says further investigation showed that the original source of the oil is not discharging to the river and high flow conditions have moved an oil in the river past Coffeyville.

    According to KDHE, the water quality conditions in the river are safe for secondary contact and livestock use.
