quote:PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - A 23-year-old man who urinated into Portland's water supply last year has pleaded guilty to misuse of a reservoir and been sentenced to community service. Joshua Seater must complete 24 hours of service at a food bank by Oct. 10. If he fails, he faces five days in jail. The Colton resident and his attorney declined comment after Thursday's brief hearing in a downtown Portland courtroom. A security camera caught Seater urinating into the Mount Tabor reservoir in June 2011. The incident led the Portland Water Bureau to drain the 7.5 million-gallon reservoir at a cost of about $36,000. Health officials said the urine posed little risk to the public.

    WTH? I bet there's more duck and goose crap in there than what his pee could ever taint.
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    He should be made to pay back the $36,000 dollars if it takes 50 years.

    7.5 million gallons isn't a lot.

    It wouldn't be like lake dillon or lake Lanier.

    This would be a pond in many parts of the us.

    I suspect they drained it because he jumped the fence and did "something" to the water supply. And they werent willing to take his word for it.

    Urinating is what he plead to. Doesn't mean that what he did.

    If they went to the trouble of draining it I hope they also rinsed it all out :)
