The City of Lawrence has rescinded the stream and health advisory for Naismith Creek.

The advisory was issued a week ago after approximately 1.9 million gallons of raw untreated sewage overflowed a manhole near 31st and Louisiana streets. Naismith Creek runs adjacent to the Baker Wetlands before eventually flowing into the Wakarusa River.

The overflow occurred due to a temporary bypass pump failure at a downstream lift station, according to the release. Laboratory testing samples collected along Naismith Creek and the Wakarusa River indicate no further health risk due to the overflow.
