I'm playing a game on Factorio stable / 0.16 with all the non-experimental Bob's mods I could find (my first run with mods on). The world has a lake in the middle but no other source of water visible so far (no idea why, IIRC I set it to plenty of spots of water, only small spot size). Now my problem is that I can easily access pure and lithia water with pumps but some recipes (e.g. in refinery) require water, just plain water. And as I understand the game (and reality) that's something different than pure water.
Am I overlooking something or is the only way I can get the required impure water through an offshore pump from a lake?

I see some design work in my future then. 
Thanks for the confirmation.
