Contraception and condoms on tap


From Pro-Life Wisconsin:
American Life League and other pro-life organizations have been warning for years that tap water contains contraceptives and other drugs, which survive the “treatment” process.

Milwaukee has a more visible, more disgusting reminder of the contraceptive, free-sex mentality — condoms floating in Lake Michigan.

In April 2003, a local angler complained of thousands of condoms floating in Lake Michigan near the Jones Island plant.

The next year, MMSD installed a temporary fix: a series of nets at the end of the treatment process designed to collect condoms, tampons and other floatable trash and prevent them from being discharged to the lake. The array of condom-catching nets, and replacement nets, cost around $1.6 million.

Installing new, smaller screens to remove debris, trash, plastic containers and condoms from wastewater flowing into the Jones Island sewage treatment plant, as well as other upgrades at the 25-year-old preliminary treatment facility, will cost $14.9 million, under a proposed contract.
