I lived in LA for a while. I made a point of not taking baths (and keeping my mouth shut in the shower) since you could smell the chlorine from the other room... EWWW! So, yeah. Even people on welfare go to the grocery store and fill up their gallon bottles via the machine outside.

Lets calm down and have a peaceful conversation here. If you want to defend your side of the discussion, yes discussion, not argument, then please support with factual evidence.

To be clear, slander is not considered a fact. Keep it out of the thread.

Please don't make me call in Oddball......LOL

no one drinks the effluent directly out of a sewage treatment plant. it is discharged into lakes and rivers and is very clean relative to the sewage that it began as. it is clean in order to protect the wildlife and the public health.

it is not distributed to the public to drink however.

.

There is an average of one mile between waste treatment plant discharge pipes along the Schuylkill river. Our water company has a large INTAKE pipe less than a mile away from the waste treatment plant on the bottom photo. The accumulative effect of those >80 waste treatment plant discharge pipes is the reason our water company had to switch from chlorine to chloramine. Chlorine did not eliminate the foul odor from the tap water.

The thought that water from our tap has gone in and out the bodies of many people from the towns up river is disgusting.
