Well, that isn't good: Two LA reservoirs shut down because of carcinogen in water

Quote:

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Two reservoirs that supply drinking water to parts of the city have been shut down and will be drained after a rare sunlight and chlorine reaction tainted the water with a cancer-causing chemical, utility officials said Friday.

The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power plans to drain 600 million gallons from the Elysian and Silver Lake reservoirs early next year, leaving them out of use for three to four months amid drought conditions, DWP spokesman Joseph Ramallo said.

High levels of the carcinogen bromate were found in early October by a commercial customer who conducted a lab test, officials said.

Well, it is a very small percentage, and hopefully it only effects the OC (I keed), but during a drought, not good timing.

Yes, the "sun" did it. Not a terrorist. LIARS! They just don't want everyone to panic.

Shit, at least they caught the sabotaged water supplies early (I hope).

There is no way to protect the water supplies. Unless we put Juicy in a rubber raft with a rifle and have him row around each lake looking for Arabs and General Nut Jobs.

LA water is fucked! Were you there in the early 1990's when almost pure chlorine came thru the taps????

I turned the water on and could smell it.
About 5 hours later the news reported it. :disgust
