Lake Perry, which serves the reservation, is at a dangerously low level. The tribe has been able to survive water emergencies in the past. The tribe used Tuesday's meeting, which was attended by state congressmen, representatives of the governor's office, and the Kansas Water Office to inform them of their situation and to renew a call for the Pikitanoi Water Project. The Project could prevent emergencies in the future. Get the Story:
