@firetoga: I kept seeing different types of pictures of the reflecting pool, so I figured I’d go down there and check it out and do some reporting lol. It’s basically a tale of two perspectives. From right next to the water it looks like the ninja Turtles secret of the ooze. It’s actually so green. It’s kind of neat and interesting, but also kind of gross looking. some kind of chemical reaction happened. But then when I went up to Lincoln and looked at it, it looked much cooler and much bluer. However, from what it looks like, they’re gonna have to do some kind of treatment of the water so that it’s not neon green. #washingtondc #reflectingpool #usa #monuments #dclife
This will definitely make living in the USA more affordable.

If your home pool was resurfaced and refilled and your pool company told you hey it’s totally normal to have water this green because there was algae in the pipes you might blow a gasket.

I know maintaining a pool is expensive but $14 million to have the water clear for one day is absurd

And if you want to make this political ( I don’t ) but in 2012 the Obama administration changed the water source for the pool from city water (potable) to tidal water. The pool has no real filtration of its own so the algae has been a bigger problem since then.
