The Mount Tabor number 1 reservoir in Portland, Ore., is seen in a June 20, 2011 photo. Portland officials said Wednesday, April 16, 2014 that they are flushing away millions of gallons of treated water for the second time in less than three years because someone urinated into a city reservoir. In June 2011, the city drained a 7.5 million-gallon reservoir at Mount Tabor in southeast Portland. This time, 38 million gallons from a different reservoir at the same location will be discarded after a 19-year-old was videotaped in the act (AP Photo/The Oregonian, Benjamin Brink)

Gary Smith, D-Norco, right, speaks to Senate attorney Riley Boudreaux in Baton Rouge, La. on Wednesday, April 16, 2014 about a bill to give the governor more authority over two New Orleans-area flood protection boards. Senators advanced a proposal Wednesday that would let the governor remove board members for violating what he considers to be public policy, despite concerns it would introduce political meddling into state flood protection.
