DIRTY WATER
DIRTY WATER
The address of the house I recently reported for sewage issues is 930 South ransom ln.
I saw my original complaint didn't go through. 930 South ransom has black smelly water discharging into the ditch.
We all are aware of the taste and smell issue with the water right now. I work at the hospital and many of my patients refuse to drink it because it tastes so bad, as do I. The smell in the shower or when pouring water to boil is so bad. My big issue is that my dog has become very ill with bleeding upon urination, vomiting, and severe diarrhea. When I took her to the vet there were 3 others in the waiting room with dogs with the same issue. I know we have been told that the water is safe to drink but I'm not sure this is a coincidence. I worry that there have not been enough testing done on the safety of the algae in the water on pets. I will be giving mine only bottled water and hope she survives this illness but really want this issue resolved.
My roommate and I have severe gastrointestinal problems and would like bloomington to test for giardia and other possible causes for it. There are so many people having the same issues as us.
I had already let the water flow, so it wasn't producing the black debris anymore, but you can see the residue on the side of this plastic container. We have had this problem periodically since we moved here two years ago.
Water taste really bad currently. Last year there was a news release about higher algae levels. Is this true again this year and why the water is tasting bad? It became really noticeable over the weekend.
I live in an apartment complex on the east side of Bloomington. The water has had an algae or dirt taste to it for about 2 weeks now. It seems like the taste is getting stronger and stronger and the smell is horrible in the shower and when brushing my teeth with the tap water.
We have been having gastrointestinal issues for the past 2.5 weeks and want the water to be tested for coliform.
I'd like for the water to be tested for giardia and cryptosporidium. I sent in a report weeks ago that was not resolved.
