smelly wateris anyone else experiencing a more then normal bleach smell from the tap? I have noticed it over the last week and It seems to be getting stronger.
I know that they add bleach at different time but I don't ever remember it smelling so strong.

I have a pretty sensitive nose, but have not smelled a bleach smell. I did notice a sort of fishy odor less than a week ago. Maybe they got complaints and added bleach. ? You could check with Denver Water.

Big nose

Hmmmmm. Maybe it's a Republican plot to make us all sick so we won't vote. We had a silent black helicopter over Edgewater Sunday night.

It's those damned aliens again. 
I'll bet Joe Nacho has something to do with it. Those guys will do anything for ratings.

OK I called Denver Water and was told that they have nothing to do with our water quality here in Edgewater. I was told that Edgewater has requested that Denver Water NOT do anything to "our" water. I was also told that they decreased the chlorine in the past month.
I still have a VERY bleachy smell , no matter which tap I use even when I flush the bleach smell is overwhelming to the point of making me hurl.
Is it just me or what?

Denver water God.....

Messed up company...Denver water is responsible for edgewater water. Edgewater does not have a pumping plant or a treatment plant. Call Mike at public Works.....

Good Idea to call Mike. Please let us know what you find. I think it may be localized to your house or area if none of us have the problem.

I totally disclaim any participation in Edgewater's water quality. I am only engaged in the entertainment industry. We have directed our marketing efforts to Belize, where On the Edge of Water is settng records and proving to be quite profitable. They love Naomi and she is doing quite well as a local celebrity.
By the way, did Hillary or Huckabee win the Oval Office? The news is a little slow getting down here.

OK here's the story I got directly from Denver Water
The treatment plant we get our water from normally is off-line
so our water is coming from another source.
I did as the requested and opened up all the taps in the house and let the cold water run for 30 minutes.
But I still have the nasty smell. I even took a bottle of water to some other people and they smelled it to .
The smell is only coming from the cold water tap.
Denver Water told me 3 times they have NO control over our water once it reached "our" pipeline. So we should have a water control specialist of our own in Edgewater. Do we?
Denver Water can not and will not come out and test it or do anything else other then call the city and tell them I have contacted them.

Again, give Mike a call at Public works, tell him the same thing you have said here. He is probably the only one who can get to the bottom of this.
I would think that, since not all of us are experiencing it, it is something quite close to your house. Do your neighbors have the same problem?
Good luck. Sounds like a nasty situation.

None of our calls have been returned.

smelly waterWhat about contacting the people/company we pay (in Texas, I believe) for the water. Maybe they can fix this for you. I don't know if they can or not, I'm just suggesting it. I'll be praying that you are able to get answers from somebody and a solution that solves the problem.

i think the Texas people are a payment processing firm. they may not have anything to do with the water service, only our checks.

I would keep calling Mike, he usually is very good at taking care of these matters. Maybe talk to Darlene as well-- she is great in helping the citizens out.
|
Smelly Water?

Anything but corned beef!

Irish dinner menu ideas?I'm always at a loss about what to have for dinner on St. Patrick's Day. I'm ok with the mashed potatoes and greens but corned beef, not so much...does anyone out there do something Irish but more upscale cuisine?

And why is this posted in the smelly water topic?
|
Irish Stew?
|
an alturnative to corned beefIrish Stew
1 lb. cubed beef
browned in olive oil and flour in a frying pan
add 1 lb. button mushrooms and saute
put it is a large stock pot
add some carrots, pearl onions, celery, frozen peas
a bouquet garni (a bundle of fresh thyme, parsley, rosemary tied with a cotton string)
1 teaspoon dry mustard
6 cups of beef stock or broth
cook on low until the carrots and celery are al dente'
(here's the Irish part)
add one pint of Guinness, allow to simmer for a bit (the alcohol will simmer out but the flavor will remain)
Serve with Irish soda bread.
It is better the second day so it's good to make it on the 16th and reheat.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
