The river as water supply: the town never drank from it

Lakeville's cup was never the river — the supply record is a well record, and the river's part in it is absence. The banked build carries the town's water course without ever stating its source: wells, and the water tower replaced across 2024 to June 2026 (lk-rem-events; the tower project's completion stands at the town's published record). This pass states the source at the strength reached. The Yellow River at this township is a ditch-confluence headwaters stream (lk-rem-rivers) with no intake, treatment plant, or river-supply works named in any carrier reached, and the town's documented course — individual and municipal wells in the DNR well-record tradition for this ground (the state's water-well record database carries Lakeville-address wells from domestic drillers across the township), capped by the 1965 tower and its 2024–26 replacement — is a groundwater course entire. Indiana's public-water-supply frame (IDEM's Drinking Water Branch; community systems inspected for source, treatment and storage under the Safe Drinking Water Act) is the settler class the row names; the town system's own IDEM file was not read, so the article prints at this strength: no river intake ever stood here to be given up — the "giving-up of the river as cup" limb of the checklist has no event to carry, because the river was never the cup. The IDEM public-water-supply record for Lakeville, read entire, remains the named settler for the system's well-by-well course.
