Read your article with great interest but I'm not sure if I got the point. We talk about Drinking Water which is food. The ideal is "Raw Water from the Source" without need for treatment, isn't it? Ensuring drinking water quality is a matter of testing, monitoring, documentation, and control. Should be feasible in so-called first-world countries. In less ideal frameworks water must be treated in order to make its consumption safe. Which methods to prefer is worth a separate discussion. Be it bottled  or tap water, aren't there sufficient legal provisions to ensure food safety in this case?   Thanks in advance for your feedback and a Healthy New Year !

Be it bottled  or tap water, aren't there sufficient legal provisions to ensure food safety in this case?

If I may here is what I would say, you ask:

The ideal is " Raw Water from the Source" without need for treatment, isn't it?

Answer: NO! because it highly depends on your definition of Raw water!

and

Be it bottled  or tap water, aren't there sufficient legal provisions to ensure food safety in this case?

Yes, and it seems that the people bottling Spring water are not abiding by the law saying that ozone it changes the structure of the water!
