GERMANTOWN, Tenn. — It's been weeks since a diesel spill in Germantown made the city water there undrinkable. Residents were left scrambling for safe drinking water, and even now, five weeks later, some are still not convinced things are safe. When Germantown water was contaminated with diesel fuel in July, it sent shock waves through the community, and ripples from that wave are still being felt today. Long-time Germantown residents like Alyse Masserano still refuse to drink the water, not convinced it is safe.
