KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Johnson County Department of Health and Environment lifted a public health advisory Friday after cleaning up a hydraulic fluid leak.
Health officials say a vehicle belonging to a contractor working on the Nelson Wastewater Improvement Project leaked the fluid on the bridge that carries Lamar Avenue over Interstate 35.
The leak prompted a public health advisory to residents and businesses in the area.
Crews from the Kansas City, Kansas, Fire Department and the Environmental Protection Agency were alerted to the spill.
Health officials said there was no impact to the public water system and “there are no other anticipated risks to public health at this time.”
