Sediment being removed from a city water storage tank.
Do you drink tap water?
This video offers a rare look inside a water storage tank. Sediment Being REMOVED by a Commercial Dive crew. Why should you care?
Sediment can be a habitat for bacteria viruses and protozoa. Keeping your water storage tanks clean may be one of the most overlooked maintenance procedures in the water industry. Out of sight and out of mind, sediment in the bottom of your water storage tanks is never seen and rarely thought of.
The sediment that builds up in almost all potable water tanks can be a habitat for bacteria and other contaminates like cryptosporidium. Contaminates can get a foothold in the sediment out of reach of the chlorine entering the tank.
In 2005 the a National Assessment of Tap Water Quality was published by the Environmental Working Group found that water suppliers across the U.S. detected 260 contaminants in water served to the public.
Keeping your tanks clean is the best way to ensure the health of your water system (its your water storage tank if you drink out of it!). If you know someone on a city council, water board or works for a water department please pass this video along to them. Information is power.
My mission is to show as many people as I can the health concerns of sediment in Public Water Supply storage tanks. Please take a few minutes to review my video, if you like it Vote me up, on the right side of the page and lets get this video on TV This would be a great way to get my message to thousands of people at a time.
Thanks for your help!

This article needs to get more play, I have been aware of issues in our public water system for years, but this takes the cake.

I had no idea water tanks could get so contaminated and gunked up like that over time. It makes me wonder about the water i drink every day.
This definitely needs more editing but I hope to see this one on TV sometime. - 3 years ago

Keep me posted on this article, great information; and no I have never seen anything like this before.
I must say that I don't doubt this for one minute. I detested drinking water straight from the tap [before] I saw this video, and now I am completely convinced that I was right-on.
I use a filter that is called Reverse Osmosis (this is disgusting) thank you for posting this.

The subject of the pod grabbed my attention; we want to know about our water. It needs a lot of editing, and the ending should definitively be changed: it makes the pod feel like a commercial.

This pod, with whatever editing and remixing is needed, is certainly worthy of airtime for it's subject matter. I mention the audio mix as the narative gets "buried" and I can't make out what's being said.
I don't think I've seen anything quite like this on television.
Good job. - 3 years ago
