Most of which have failed water treatment facilities, as opposed to no water treatment, no? Complexities ....

Of course at least one response would be to spend more money on these issues. Eventually, that seems inevitable, but I suspect that mainstream public opinion is not yet fully accepting of that reality. Even as the government presses forward, they are going to be looking over their shoulder for signs of push back (strange image, but you know what I mean!).
