    KDHE issues stream advisory for Verdigris River near Neodesha, KS

    KANSAS (KOAM) -- The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) issues a stream advisory for Verdigris River.

    According to the KDHE, the stream advisory is due to an oil spill around 500 feet from the Verdigris River east of Neodesha, Kansas.

    The advisory extends from 75 highway east of Neodesha, Kansas in Wilson County to the Oklahoma State line.

    KDHE says the Kansas Corporation Commission and National Response Center are working to address the source of the problem.

    According to KDHE, they will rescind the advisory once testing indicates secondary contact has been deemed safe. Until then, they say do not enter the stream or allow livestock, children, or pets to enter the stream.
