STROUD TOWNSHIP, MONROE COUNTY- It was all about the water under the bridge in Monroe County Monday morning.

Part of Brodhead Creek in Stroud Township went neon green. It was all because of a dye tracing test.

Water treated from Brodhead Creek goes to more than 22,000 homes in five communities. Some people who live in the area may see a green tint to their drinking water.

Officials say the dye won't harm people or pets.
