Wow...that sucks! Somehow I don't think they regularly test water for the presence of BBTV before using it for irrigation (and I hope this water is processed before being used...cause damn...E. coli, etc etc). It really makes ya wonder how many other diseases make it through like this. I do know that most municipal drinking water contains levels of hormones and many pharmaceutical agents. Water companies have very stringent testing processes for a lot of different chemicals, but there are a LOT of things for which the government has not made legal 'level' for.....and these things are not tested for at all under normal processing. Scary, huh!?
