Jds63 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 sounds crazy to waste that much water .... an open water supply like that is likely to get crap from birds, insects and animals just dump in some chlorine tablets for gods sake !!! i don't get it ....
manitoubass2 Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 We have lost our minds. This is so rediculous i cannot imagine the thought process behind this. Also, peeing is a crime???? Whatever...
Roy Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 I once pee'd in Lake Ontario. If the government ever finds out, it's gunna cost taxpayers a piss pot full of money.
captpierre Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 Lots of water in Oregon. Likely just the optics for the public. Stupid, but likely just easier to let it go than deal with a scared public
Headhunter Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 We don't swim in your toilet, please don't pee in our pool! HH
jimmer Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 Are you telling me they have that water go from reservoir right to the tap?????

aplumma Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 Once the water is drawn from the reservoir it is then pumped into a tower and as it passes thru the pump a product called Chloramin is aerated/injected into the water. All of the filtration is done when it is pumped into the reservoir. This action was done just to placate the people and head off a scandal or Bull lawsuit. Art

aplumma Posted April 18, 2014 Report Posted April 18, 2014 Never mind what is in the water if you really want to see YUCK it is as close as the money in your pocket or the ice machine at any restaurant. Thankfully the human body can fight off most of the stuff you are bombarded with in an average day. We humans on the cellular level are amazing with what our bodies do in the background of our lives.

moxie Posted April 18, 2014 Report Posted April 18, 2014 Utter insanity. Another example of how stupid humans can be.
