hello everyone. In one of our projects we have a piezomentric tower previously used as a process water. The water contained in this tower comes from the first water aquifer (therefore not potable water). We would like to keep this piezometric tower in the new project and use this water as non-potable water supply. Is it possible to consider this system as "alternative water sources"?

Hey Gloria, Unfortunately, untreated water sources ("raw water") that comes from naturally occuring bodies of water like streams, rivers, groundwater (aquifer), well water, and water discharged from an open-loop geothermal system are considered ineligible for this credit.
