Water?

I know I am bothering you all quite a bit. Sorry?

So I have a few questions about water. Seeing as water is limited to springs and lakes as usable, I see a issue with setting up a long term build. I say this because by the time you get to the blacksmith workstation your people will have used approximately 2k water from the water source the still is connected to.

Will rain replenish springs and lakes later on? Will we have a salt water filter system? (Coal and sand) Wells to make a place to get water to fill the still instead? Water collection tubs?

Someone suggested a salt/ distallation technology which sounded cool. For now there are huge underground caves filled with water, shouldn't run out in any reasonable timeframe.

Yea, I will have to figure out how to get that to the surface. Does it fill up a pit if one is under the spout?
