Bad Drinking Water

What’s the matter with them now? They are trying to say that our drinking water has medicine in it. What is it, so many parts per/billion or less? Let me say this.
I’m a plumber and I’ve worked in a waste water plant and a water purification plant and here’s the low down.
In waste water treatment water and waste flows to the waste water plant to be treated. It goes through a series of filters and chemicals in the process to be released back into the lake. These parts per/million of impurities are not harmful to the environment when released. A great deal of money and technology helps this process stay efficient and effective for this system to work as safe and reliable as can be, and is checked and double checked continually.
After treatment water is deposited into the lake. If you test water at the discharge after treatment you might get a trace of impurities you could identify, but this is not where we get our water to drink. (WE DO NOT GET THE WATER WE DRINK FROM THE AREA OF THE DISCHARGE FROM THE WASTE WATER TREATMENT PLANT.)
The water we use for drinking has its intakes miles from this discharge, and this discharge that’s deposited into the lake has trillions and trillions of gallons of moving water to dilute these small impurities. It’s like trying to fine a needle in a hay stack or as a plumber would say, piss in an ocean. I guess this study says they’ve found piss in an ocean.
Again this water is taken from the lake and treated with filters and chemicals.
And again, so many parts per/million considered safe is pumped through the water system to your faucets. Because of the infrastructure of the piping system the water will pick up more part per/million of impurities before it gets to your faucet. I just can’t believe that the test came from the tap, maybe at the discharge from waste water discharges but not the tap from your home.
Was the test from well water? Well water has its set of circumstances too.
We have a greater risk with the air we breathe then the water we drink.
And like always, never stop dreaming, never stop planning, never stop advertising, and when you do, "Let Us Mind Your Business"
