I found this several times when a medic decided he was going to not deliver carried water. The water rots in the open and later the bucket is removed by someone.

Rot is a horrible word, and you can't recover the object anyway, so it shouldn't bother telling you.  Then it should evaporate and leave you alone.

Would "spoiled water" sound better?

"Stagnant" is what you'd call water like that, which by the way probably shouldn't evaporate easily underground.  I could see stagnant water putting out a miasma, or at least spawning mosquitos.
