Public water supplies in the Seattle area are excellent. We have soft water with little mineral content that is delivered right to our tap on a gravity feed system from reservoirs in the Cascade mountains located 20-30 miles east of Seattle. I drink the local tap water with no hesitations. I know we have an abundant supply of clean filtered water that has been treated to remove kill any bugs that might have been in the water supply. The watersheds that feed into the reservoirs are off-limits to most public access. Logging is strictly regulated to keep dirt and debris out of the tributary streams. I love having all the clean water I need on demand for drinking, bathing and cleaning. The lush vegetation in Western Washington is a bonus from all that water.
