Just heard it on the news. Might be nothing, but motorist saw a driver stop his car and dump the pail in the water, then reported it to the police. Reservoir is shut off from it's customers for the time being.
The pail has been retrieved and sections of the water are separated from the rest of the water by some method they didnt reveal.

If it looked anything like this, I can tell you what was in there. :)

It's all a statist ruse to distract us all from the fact that we can't just walk into the Cash-n-Carry to purchase sarin gas, or visit the local ice house to mix anthrax and shoot the breeze.

I think I heard of this before, Oh...
"Who threw the overalls
In Mrs. Murphy's chowder?"
Nobody spoke, so he
Shouted all the louder.
"It's a rotten trick that's true,
I can lick the Mick that threw
The overalls in Mrs. Murphy's chowder."

You can't be serious. Even the warm spots in a swimming pool eventually spread.

Probably there's some "Frenchie" setting up a new bottled water business in town.

"sections of the water are separated from the rest of the water by some method..." My guess would be some guy dumped his used motor oil in there and they are using those absorbent floating spill containment cushions to limit the spread.

I suspect this may be a contender for "biggest False Alarm since 9/11" posted on FR, and that's against FIERCE competition. I think the best previous one were the women who called the police and got a HAZMAT team out to Kent Narrows in Maryland because some painters dumped some plaster in a parking lot at a restaurant, during the Anthrax scare.
I think this being in "Breaking News" is fairly ridiculous.
My guess will be someone who forgot to dump their minnows after fishing, realized he wasn't going fishing again soon, and stopped and dumped the minnows in the reservoir.

You're right, it might be nothing. But, with four Pakistani's on the loose,(plus who knows how many more middle-eastern terrorist wanna-be's - thank you INS), I'm happy that anybody noticing anything remotely suspicious takes the time to report it!
