I really have no idea how much untreated water is worth at the source. I now how much it costs me when it's treated and pumped to my house, but I don't know how much the raw water is worth. If it's worth more than that, maybe the agency selling permits should charge more. It's hardly Nestle's fault if they paid the required fee for their use.
