Ferry Workers Spend Years Drinking Contaminated Water

Workers at the Washington State ferry headquarters building unknowingly spent the past five years drinking water from pipes connected to the heating, air conditioning, and ventilation systems. Maintenance workers recently discovered the plumbing mistake and alerted authorities to the problem.

Workers will meet with a toxicologists next week to talk about how they may have been affected by the bad water. About 240 people work in the facility.

    Washington is ahead of the times. They’re just being green and reusing the water…

    Glad I never drank from the fountains there. Lol

    I drank from these water fountains daily for 3 years. Being a previous employee, I have never been contacted about my exposure. Do I hear law suit?

    RDM – I’d do two things.

    1.) Check your balls for unusual lumps.

    2.) Sue. Sue until you can’t sue anymore.
