Most city people don't think about the water they use every day. But how water is actually able to even flow from a faucet is quite a feat, considering where it starts out from. NYC's water supply system is one of the most extensive municipal systems in the world. This complex system relies on a combination of tunnels, aqueducts and reservoirs. It draws from three separate systems; the Croton Reservoir, The Catskill Aqueduct and from the Delaware River.How it actually gets to us is though the flow of our money into three additional systems that enable it to ultimately remain clean and clear enough for us to drink. Those three systems are The Dept. of Environmental Protection, The Municipal Water Finance Authority and the Water Board. Now that today's economy has mirrored back to us humanity's long term corrupt behavior with regards to money handling, perhaps each of us on an individual basis should seriously examine just who's hands we're placing our daily health in. After all, the human body is made up of 55% to 78% water!
