Panzer Division Marduk Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 http://thedailyedge.thejournal.ie/teenager-pees-in-reservoir-1422118-Apr2014/ OFFICIALS PLAN TO flush out an entire 38-million-gallon reservoir of drinking water after one teenager peed in it, in Oregon. All the water from a reservoir at Mount Tabor near Portland will be discarded, after a 19-year-old was videotaped taking a whizz in it on Wednesday “The basic commandment of the Water Bureau is to provide clean, cold and constant water to its customers,” bureau administrator David Shaff said on Wednesday. “And the premise behind that is we don’t have pee in it.” The open reservoirs hold water that has already been treated and goes directly into mains for distribution to customers. Portland Water Bureau spokeswoman Jaymee Cuti said on Thursday that test samples of water taken from the reservoir came back clean. Shaff knew the urine posed little risk — animals routinely deposit waste without creating a public health crisis — but said the city has plenty of water to meet demand and he didn’t want to serve water that was deliberately tainted. Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch=vDY3GcFhHgc&t=) “There is at least a perceived difference from my perspective,” Shaff said. “I could be wrong on that, but the reality is our customers don’t anticipate drinking water that’s been contaminated by some yahoo who decided to pee into a reservoir.” A 19-year-old was cited for public urination. Now, I know there's a long time member of this place who, over the years has made it clear how much he enjoys pissing in the reservoir at his house for all the NYC'ers to drink. He might want to watch himself if this sort of health and safety thing catches on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larz Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 that's either a very old story or it's happened before. so they acknowledge animals pee in it, but it's not "some yahoo" doing it delibrately so intent matters oy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizard King Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I'm sure it'll only cost them a quarter million to fill it back up. They'll probably just pay for it in bitcoin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsis Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Urine is sterile. This is silly. Urine is only sterile in the bladder. Once it reaches your urethra and external genetalia it is no longer sterile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lizard King Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Urine is only sterile in the bladder. Once it reaches your urethra and external genetalia it is no longer sterile. You can drink your urine six times before you begin to have health repercussions. They teach it in army survival school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
