Toilet to Tap Water - A Clever Diversion?


Anyone who reads the EPA reports on municipal tap water and reads beyond the hype knows that tap water contains many contaminants that are harmful to the human body. In addition tap water smells and tastes like swimming pool water because of the addition of heavy chlorine to kill bacteria.

But municipal water managers, who are essentially politicians attempting to save their jobs and maintain their share of municipal budgets, have now dreamed up a new scheme to cover the inefficiencies in the water processes.

The new scheme , introduced in Clearwater Florida, would allow the water company to dump wastewater directly into the aquifer in an attempt to use the aquifer as a purification method.

Many citizens have complained that this "Toilet to Tap Water" scheme will not improve the purity of the tap water but will result in contamination of the aquifer.

Nice try.
