I will take recycled water at 1/2 the cost.
Much of potable water nowadays is essentially recycled sewage water. Read Water 4.0, it came out just recently, was written by a professor/consultant in the field, is very readable, follows the history of water and sewage and explains in pretty good detail the processes that are being developed and used to convert previously unused effluent/sewage/waste into usable products, particularly potable water. There are plants doing this in CA right now.
