This story came from The TOPEKA CAPITOL-JOURNAL Monday morning.
If you live in one of the MetroRegion communities mentioned- Osawatomie in Miami county- pay attention.
According to the story- "Independent testing of water supplies in at least four Kansas communities revealed elevated levels of the herbicide atrazine commonly sprayed on corn fields and other crops to deter weed growth, according to a published report Monday. "
More troubling was this paragraph from the C-J story: "In the four Kansas communities (Osawatomie included), according to the report, water officials didn't reveal to customers the highest level of atrazine concentration in their water during the year. "
