For 14 months during the Civil War, the South operated a prison at Andersonville, Georgia for captured Union soldiers. The conditions there were unspeakably awful. The men were subjected to a lack of shelter from the weather, given little food that was of low quality, and forced to use a filthy disease-ridden supply of water from a small creek for all their needs.
Prisoners were also abused by Confederate guards and a marauding gang of other soldiers. Of the 45,000 held there, 13,000 died, nearly all from diseases and starvation. The need for better water was especially acute. Six months into the period the prison was open, there was a group of Christian soldiers meeting daily to pray for water. Their prayers were answered, saving many lives during the remaining eight months until the war ended.
To spare you the terribly gruesome descriptions of the prison camp reported in most videos, details of this miracle are presented in this link instead:

As the video states, modern day visitors to this site are instructed not to drink the flowing water. Today’s standards for water testing and understanding of health considerations rule it out. One might say it was a good thing there was no Federal EPA in 1864!
While some regulation is the right thing, overregulation in America is not. An Article V state amending convention can help rein in overregulation imparted by unelected bureaucrats.
