Fish in Big Cherry contaminated

[NotSoSilentBob]

Chlorine in and of itself will not effect the taste of water, at least as long as it isn't in excess of 4-5 mg/L.

As for the mercury, it is naturally occuring and is not as toxic as is popularly believed.

As boney said, just another way for the media to throw out a scare.

Hey, I've been selling off my overstock. I'm down to just 12 in the boat.

Ok that doesn't help any. How about directions or a better direction than "above." [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/crazy.gif[/img]

Therefore, it is important to understand that Primary Standards for drinking water contaminants do not guarantee that water with a contaminant level below the standard is risk-free, nor do they mean that water with a higher level is unsafe. The standards also do not take into account the possible presence of other chemicals, which may increase or decrease the toxicity of the contaminant.*

Bottom line. Passing the standard doesn't mean it's necessarily safe...... </div></div>

You don't know how right you are. The standards set by the EPA are some of the most arbitrary things the government does. Many times those in charge just pull numbers out of the air.

When you're coming down the mountain by the overlook, it's on top of the mountains to the left.

Out of the air? I always thought they pulled them out of somewhere else...
