Risk of Disease Rises With Water Temperatures
Washington Post, United States 
cities and towns — including New York, the District, Milwaukee and Philadelphia — that have “combined sewer systems,” archaic designs that carry storm water and sewage in the same pipes. During heavy rains, the systems often cannot handle the volume, and raw sewage spills into lakes or waterways, including drinking-water supplies. 13, during an unrelenting downpour, Chicago chose to prevent urban flooding by opening and releasing runoff containing raw sewage into Lake Michigan. About a month later, a University of Wisconsin study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine predicted an increase of 50 to 120 percent in such releases into the lake by the end of the century. “One of the strongest indicators from climate models is more intense rains,” said co-author Stephen Vavrus, director of the university’s Center for Climatic Research.

Farme owners worry about water supply in case of fire
MetroWest Daily News, MA 
The plan was put on hold due to tight finances and opposition from residents. Craig said the department already has several ways to respond to a fire at the farm. The first line of defense is 750 gallons of water carried by fire trucks, Craig said. Each pumper truck also carries 1,200 feet of hose that could be hooked up to the nearest hydrant. Craig said the nearby hydrant is located near a pump station, ensuring the water pressure would be high enough to help fight a blaze. Other options also include calling in Westford firefighters or the Carlisle Fire Department, which has a tanker truck. Craig said that the McKays could also set up an alarm system that would immediately notify staff at the fire station, further helping to cut response times.
