Gururu Its just mud agitated in the aquafer. If you use a well it will be muddy for a few months once they stop disturbing it. No biggie, perfectly safe to drink. Reply

Yeah no biggie … just "mineral enhanced water". No worse than Dasani! They won't need to keep taking their multivitamin now! Reply
hotaru251 . One possibility is that the turbid water coming out of the wells of Morgan County residents is a sign that the water table is getting too low, and their pumps are now taking in water from the well bottom, where mud and sediment settle. When you combine that with reports of data centers using up a ton of water, then it is understandable that some in the community would blame the data center project for their water woes. yes, however if it ONLY started after the center was running then it would STILL be the fault of the data center as they casued that to occur.

-Fran- It's ok everyone. I'm sure the Datacentre owners will investigate themselves and will find no issues here. Regards. Reply

If that is coming out of my kitchen sink , we have a problem. Would YOU drink that? Would you give it to your 2 year old? Reply
SteJBorchard Sad but really wouldn't be surprising. Meta/Zuck has been on my crap list since 2014 ish. I hope the people of that area band together to protest and prevent construction and or get it fixed with compensation. Reply
blppt I'm not going to hold my breath on Meta being held responsible. https://frinkiac.com/comic/img?b=AQIBBlMwNUUwMy5tAwABEvQBygNfR2VudGxlbWVuLCBJJ3ZlIGRlY2lkZWQKdGhlcmUgd2lsbCBiZSBubyBpbnZlc3RpZ2F0aW9uLgpOb3csIGlmIHlvdSdsbCBleGN1c2UgbWUsIEknbGwgZ28gYXdheS4A Reply
razor512 It depends on how old the water lines are. If you use a large amount of water very quickly, causing a high flow rate, then it will agitate all of the sediment inside of the water pipes. For example, if you live in an older city, e.g., NYC, and someone opens a fire hydrant fully for a few minutes, you will see that your water will be dirty for a day or 2. If a datacenter is using a closed loop liquid cooling system and they are going to fill a reservoir tank in order to process that water for the cooling system, they may fill that tank at a rate equivalent to multiple fire hydrants opened full blast for a while, and that will loosen a massive amount of sediment in the city waterlines.

The amount of shillage in this post is big enough to fill an aquifer, muddy or not. Why don't you drink, cook and bathe in such muddy water and get back to us in a few months with the "no biggie" results! PS: I have a well and the water is never muddy, because people like your friend Zucky are not "disturbing" it. Reply
