I read the story and I'm confused. How did the data center discharge water get contaminated? Is that a recurring complaint? I thought it worked a bit like how water is used for nuclear reactors. Or am i misunderstanding it?

> Strong said it was not known when the bacterium entered the water, only that it was present during routine fecal bacteria testing on the discharged water.
