The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has issued a stream advisory for the Wolf Creek near Lucas and the Saline River from Lucas,  to Culver in Russell, Lincoln, Ottawa and Saline Counties.

The stream advisory is a result of an ongoing investigation by the Environmental Protection Agency and KDHE to identify a potential substance.

If you live or have activities near this stream, do not enter the stream or allow livestock, children, or pets to enter the stream.

KDHE will rescind the advisory once the stream has been deemed safe for secondary (wading) contact and livestock use.
