While the technique can work anywhere, you're best served placing your sewage treatment plant and water pumping station back-to-back in a centrally located area. Just don't let them know where it comes from. As long as all the station's pumps are the filtration kind, it won't matter how dirty it is: your Sims will have nice, clean, fresh water to drink for the rest of their lives. To minimize illness, simply be sure that your water pumping station uses the water filtration pump modules, rather than the standard water pumps. Ergo, simply place a water pumping station next to a sewage treatment plant, and there you go: unlimited water! The rate of sewage treatment climbs with, but is always faster than, water pumping. The dirty truth is that the sewage treatment plant not only takes in raw sewage, but converts it to water and dumps it back into the water table. Using a simple technique with advanced buildings, you can ensure that your city has an unlimited water supply to work with.
