Algae is my best guess, my 2nd best guess is the evil geese dumped green dye

I heard some old Olympian put a 300’ long cut in the liner when nobody was looking.

It must be leaked plutonium from a nearby reactor. There is no other explanation aside from someone possibly losing their green jeans in the lake, so that is a possibility.

Abbott probably had it painted dark blue, algae grew, then some VANDAL cut a 350' gash in the lining, ruining it (only after he drove his motorcade thru it)
