San Francisco is Literally Full of Shit

[Midnight Marauder]

Most hypo used is 15-17%, as the higher concentrations degrade far too quickly. Even 17% hypo is only good for a few months before is degrades.

I'm not sure you can even buy 80-90% hypo outside of lab scale amounts.

Storebought bleach is never over 5%. 80-90% solution is common for industrial use. The 15-17% solution you speak of is common for industrial laundry applications.

17% is what is used for wastewater treatment, as anything stronger tends to degrade too quickly. It is delivered via tanker truck. What industries use 80%-80% and what the hell is it stored in?

I've seen it in tankers, 55 gallon drums, 300-gallon totes, you name it. It's stable at cool temps.

ow officials are stocking up on a $14 million, three-year supply of highly concentrated sodium hypochlorite - better known as bleach - to act as an odor eater and to disinfect the city's treated water before it's dumped into the bay. It will also be used to sanitize drinking water.

Wait... aren't we supposed have water treatment plants for a reason? If the water needs to be sanitized before drinking, it would seem it's not being treated properly in the first place.

San Francisco may name sewage treatment plant after Bush
By Jesse McKinley

SAN FRANCISCO — Reagan has his highways. Lincoln has his memorial. Washington has the capital, and a state, too. But President George W. Bush may soon be the sole president to have a memorial named after him that you can contribute to from the bathroom.

From the Department of Damned-With-Faint-Praise, a group going by the regal-sounding name of the Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco is planning to ask voters here to change the name of a prize-winning water-treatment plant on the shoreline to the George W. Bush Sewage Plant.

The plan - hatched, naturally, in a bar - would place a vote on the November ballot to provide "an appropriate honor for a truly unique president."
