The sand filters and even RO systems are not fool proof. I few years back here we had a rash of illness and a few deaths from cryptosporidium in Milwaukee. Milwaukee gets it's water from Lake Michigan, even with the filtering, treating and settling it got through. Navigable waters- it doesn't matter if you own all the land around it if it's declared navigable the Army Corps of engineers owns it, look at your tax bill are you paying taxes on it?
