I don't live in the area and it isn't exactly Money Saving, but because it is only for a particular area I thought best to post this here.

I presume anyone who lives in the affected areas already knows about the problems, but chlorine was mixed up with a barrel of diesel and diesel has been put into the water supplies for Stoke Hill, Beacon Heath and Pennsylvania.

1m gallons of water (size of 2 olympic swimming pools) is being drained from a reservoir.
