That is awesome. I remember about 10 years ago when they had the Redbull Flutag there and some of the competitors got sick. Good to know it is safe to swim finally.

I like this quote
"Two days after the city releases combined sewer and stormwater into the river, it’s gone from downtown Portland"
Gone? Gone where? I guess once it leaves Portland there is no reason to worry. Whew!

When I lived in Tahoe we used to say. "it's a long way to Reno, better flush twice."
