jaySUBJECT: Cancellation of Bottled Water Service
This is to notify you that the bottled water service is being cancelled effective February 28, 2005. While this action is regrettable, it is necessary to bring the Center into compliance with appropriation laws.
... we asked the Environmental Services Division to verify that the tap water at the Center is in compliance with the California Safe Drinking Water Act. In January, they certified that the tap water at the Center has been deemed safe to drink per California's Safe Drinking Water Act (as approved by the US EPA). For this reason, the Center is required to discontinue the use of a bottled water service that is funded by the Center's budget.
Keep in mind that Moffett Field has a dozen Superfund sites on the premises, and no one currently drinks the tap water (it tastes a bit off)...

Thankfully, Pictor can survive in tap water treated with the special drops -- at least so far.
