The Feds are on to it Hi, Found this whilst snooping around: as some of US already knew, bu$hCo’s in the sewer, stinkin’ to high heaven. but forget about New Orleans and forget about rebuilding Iraq cause there’s nothing better to spend time, money and resources on: bu$hCo is now making a valiant effort to root through a Virginia county’s sewage, lookin’ for clues cocaine: Fairfax Co. Takes Part in Unusual Wastewater Experiment: ‘… Wastewater from communities throughout the Potomac River Basin is being tested for the urinary byproducts of cocaine. “Apparently, they’re able to ascertain how many people may be using illicit drugs, in this case cocaine, with such studies,” Board of Supervisors Chairman Gerry Connolly tells WTOP. ‘ Earlier this month, county workers collected five days worth of water samples at the pollution control plant in Lorton. The samples were sent to a lab in Rockville, Md., to be analyzed for the traces of the main urinary byproduct of cocaine. “It does not indicate that we have an unusual drug problem in Fairfax County,” Connolly says. “I’ll be interested, obviously, in the results. It’s kind of an unusual study and an unusual request. Obviously, we’re prepared to cooperate with any endeavor to try to make sure the use of illicit drugs is discouraged in our community.” ‘White House officials believe the wastewater testing will lead to a more accurate index of how many people use drugs than traditional survey research.’
