Drinking water in Tuscumbia, Ala., has been checked and rechecked through the years by experts nationwide, according to a TimesDaily report.
The issue of water quality usually comes up during the rare occasions when residents notice an unusual smell of the water. "No one has been able to tell us why it has that smell nor can they tell what causes it," said Tuscumbia mayor Wade Gann. "They have all assured us it's safe, but the thing is, no one wants to drink it during those times."
