The principle of “best available source” needs to be revived in water supply planning. The higher the quality of the source, the higher the quality of the product. Quality concerns should encourage the pursuit of a wider range of options for water supply sources, including joint enterprise among communities in the same region that together might be able to afford a more distant but higher‐quality source. Finally, water resource planning that permits high‐quality water to be used for high‐quality purposes now includes water reclamation and reuse and dual distribution systems. This approach has potential wherever high‐quality water resources are limited, which is beginning to be almost everywhere.
