TOPEKA – The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE), in conjunction with the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism (KDWPT), has issued public health warnings for some Kansas lakes for the upcoming weekend and week.
Blue-Green Algae
If a lake is under a public health warning for blue-green algae, activities such as boating and fishing may be safe. However, direct contact with water (i.e., wading, skiing and swimming) is strongly discouraged for people, pets and livestock. The lakes currently under a public health advisory:
A closed or closure status indicates that conditions are extremely dangerous for humans and pets. Harmful algal toxins and cell counts are at dangerously high levels. Any kind of contact with the waterbody is prohibited.
Lakes under a warning are not closed. Marinas, lakeside businesses and park camping facilities are open for business. If swim beaches are closed, it will be specifically noted. Drinking water and showers at parks are safe and not affected by algae blooms. Boating and fishing are safe on lakes under a warning but contact with the water should be avoided. Hands should also be washed with clean water after handling fish taken from an affected lake. Zoned lakes may have portions fully open for all recreation even if other portions are under a warning.
Kansans should be aware that blooms are unpredictable. They can develop rapidly and may float around the lake, requiring visitors to exercise their best judgment. If there is scum, a paint-like surface or the water is bright green, avoid contact and keep pets away. These are indications that a harmful bloom may be present. Pet owners should be aware that animals that swim in or drink water affected by a harmful algal bloom or eat dried algae along the shore may become seriously ill or die.
When a warning is issued, KDHE recommends the following precautions be taken:
KDHE samples publicly-accessible bodies of water for blue-green algae when the agency receives reports of potential algae blooms in Kansas lakes. Based on sampling results, KDHE reports on potentially harmful conditions.
For information on blue-green algae and reporting potential harmful algal blooms, please visit www.kdheks.gov/algae-illness/index.htm.

Just after 8p.m. Saturday, officers with the Riley County Police Department arrested Steven Meredith, 32, of Junction City, on a Riley County District Court warrant for first degree murder, according to a media release from Riley County Police.
Meredith is being held in the Riley County Jail on $1,000,000.00 bond in connection to the October 2017 death of Carrie Jones, 48, of Junction City.
Meredith has previous convictions of arson, aggravated failure to appear, flee or attempted to elude police, obstruction, theft and drugs, according to the Kansas Department of Corrections.
Authorities released no additional details late Saturday.
Manhattan– Twin Valley, a local technology solutions provider, is helping Manhattan businesses innovate by giving away $25,000 worth of technology products and services in their Transform Your Tech contest.
All Manhattan businesses that are helping innovate the community are asked to enter online at InnovateManhattan.com. A panel of other Manhattan “innovators” will select three finalists from the entries based on a number of factors, including how much that business is innovating the community and how great their need for a technology upgrade is. After finalists are selected, the community will be able to vote for who they think deserves the technology package.
“We’re excited to see the vision that the people of Manhattan have for the organizations they serve, said Twin Valley General Manager and COO, Scott Leitzel. “Manhattan is thriving because it’s filled with energetic business leaders focused on driving innovation. We’re here to support that.”
Along with new laptops and software, the winner will receive a strategic plan on how to best utilize technology for their business objectives and 12 months of IT support.
Contest Overview:
TOPEKA – To meet Nebraska’s legal obligation to increase the flow of the Republican River into Kansas, the Central Nebraska Public Power and Irrigation District has proposed creating a connection in Nebraska between the Platte River Basin and the Republican River Basin. After entering northcentral Kansas, the Republican River feeds into Lovewell Reservoir and Milford Reservoir before joining the Kansas River near Junction City. The Republican River also connects with several other waterways in northcentral Kansas.
The State of Kansas opposes this project because invasive Asian Carp and White Perch in the Platte River could enter the Republican River (along with other nuisance species) if the two rivers are connected. As a result, the project could severely impact Kansas’ sportfish and native aquatic species, water-based recreation, tourism and the state’s fishing economy. There is no evidence that those two species currently live in the Republican River.
Asian Carp can grow to more than 40 inches long and weigh more than 50 pounds. One Asian Carp species, the Silver Carp, is known to leap up to 10 feet in the air when boats or personal watercraft pass over. They pose a risk of serious injury to boaters and skiers who may find themselves surrounded by dozens of large, heavy fish leaping wildly from the water. Asian Carp and White Perch also compete with sportfish, so Kansas’ $210,000,000 recreational fishing industry would be at risk from declines of sportfish such as bass, crappie and walleye. Asian Carp are filter-feeders that compete with other fish for food and space. They are prolific breeders, grow fast and can quickly become the predominate fish species in a lake or river. In other states, some lakes with Asian Carp have experienced sportfish population declines of more than 80 percent with corresponding damage to their fishing and tourism economies.
White Perch are native to the east coast of the United States, and they can produce overpopulated, stunted populations in reservoirs. Stunted White Perch are too small to be sought after by anglers and can be so numerous that they can clog cities’ water intakes if there is a die-off. In addition, these fish eagerly eat the eggs of other fish species.
Changes to the Republican River could also impact critical habitat for the Shoal Chub and Plains Minnow which are threatened species in Kansas. Both species release their eggs into flowing water where they would be susceptible to being eaten by White Perch.

MANHATTAN — U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran, Kansas, will deliver the first Landon Lecture of the 2018-2019 school year at Kansas State University.

Sept. 11, 2018, marks the 17th anniversary of the day terrorists launched the largest attack on U.S. soil since Pearl Harbor. It’s a day not to be forgotten and a day that has changed the world in many ways, from international relations and world trade to security and defense. In this Landon Lecture, Sen. Moran will reflect on how these attacks invigorated his call to service and helped inform his ongoing priorities in Washington, D.C., on behalf of our global society.
“Landon Lectures are an incredible opportunity for the K-State community to hear firsthand from today’s national and international leaders,” said Linda Cook, chair of the Landon Lecture Series and the university’s chief of staff and director of community relations. “That’s why we’re especially pleased to kick off this year’s lecture series with Sen. Moran, who has been representing Kansas in the U.S. Congress since 1996, first as a member of the House and now as a member of the Senate.”
A senator since 2011, Moran is a member of the Appropriations, Commerce, Veterans’ Affairs, Banking and Indian Affairs committees. He is co-founder and a member of the Senate Hunger Caucus, Senate Community Pharmacy Caucus and the Senate Economic Mobility Caucus. He serves as co-chair of the Congressional Task Force on Down Syndrome, Senate Aerospace Caucus, the Senate NIH Caucus and the Senate Defense Communities Caucus.
Before his election to the Senate, Moran served seven terms in the U.S. House of Representatives. He has been returning to Kansas each weekend since he was first elected to Congress in 1996, and holds town hall meetings in all 105 Kansas counties during every session as part of his “Kansas Listening Tour.”
Moran’s service has earned several prestigious honors, including the Science Coalition’s Champion of Science Award and the National Rural Health Association’s Legislative Award in 2014, the National Down Syndrome Society’s Impact Award in 2017 and the inaugural Dennis Moore Alzheimer Champion Award from the Alzheimer’s Association of Central and Western Kansas in 2018.
Originally from Plainville, Moran attended Fort Hays State University and then the University of Kansas, completing a degree in economics. After an early career as a banker, he received his law degree from the University of Kansas School of Law where he graduated Order of the Coif.
A member of the board of governors of the KU School of Law, the board of trustees of the Fort Hays State University Endowment Foundation and a former trustee of the Eisenhower Foundation, Moran is an active member of the Lions Club, Rotary Club and the Sons of The American Legion. He also serves on the U.S. Military Academy’s board of visitors and previously served on the U.S. Air Force Academy’s board of visitors.
Moran and his wife, Robba, live in Manhattan and have two daughters — Kelsey and Alex — who both hold degrees from Kansas State University.
