Beneath the Pink Underwear
If you didn’t know better, you’d have thought the news had it covered. It was April 23, and red dye was streaming through faucets and showerheads in northern Miami-Dade. Some underwear turned pink in the washing machines. On TV, there were live pictures of red water along the edges of the Miami River and in the Northwest Wellfield. The county reacted quickly and calmed the storm. The dye was harmless, the Water and Sewer Department (WASD) said. “Residents need not boil their water,” NBC 6 told viewers.
But beneath the pink underwear lay another story, which though less sexy, is much more important.
