Does the BBC think it's improper for a speaker to state their opinion that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history?
Because I think almost all historians would readily agree that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history.

NEW: When RFK Jr. first told Trump that Tylenol might cause autism, the president wanted to tweet out a warning. Kennedy told him not to do that. There was nuance, and the drug companies would push back. “I don’t give a shit about that,” Trump responded. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

6 million gallons per day is about 20 acre-feet/day. Or about 7,000 af/yr. Over a 20 year lifespan, that's about 140,000 acre feet, for a cost of $120 million
So a little less than $1,000 per acre-foot, which, for a municipality, isn't really all that expensive.
