• Drought Pushes Baltimore to Blend Susquehanna River Water Into Taps, and Some Residents May Notice a Taste Change (medicaldaily.com) — If you live in Cockeysville, your tap water now includes a blend of Susquehanna River and reservoir water processed at Baltimore's Montebello plants, which may slightly change taste or color but remains safe, officials say. The blend began October 5 due to ongoing drought, with no end date yet, and residents are urged to report any fuel-like odors and keep conserving water at home.
