"PORTLAND, Ore. — The city has moved 38 million gallons of drinking water after a teen urinated in it to another reservoir rather than draining it. For now, Commissioner Fish decided to leave the water in Reservoir Number 6 rather than immediately draining it for two reasons: It responds to community requests that the empty reservoir be filled for aesthetic reasons. It will allow the bureau to see how the water does when it sits for a long period of time." Source: http://koin.com/2014/04/24/city-moves-c … reservoir/ Portland has so much water that reservoirs can be filled for "aesthetic reasons" and "let water sit for a long time" to see "how the water does" ! And yes, our commissioner's last name happens to be Fish. The world can be a weird place, sometimes. Meanwhile in California: Apr 28 14 08:51 pm Link |
