Dear Phil,
Data is going through the cleaning process in JOSM at the moment.
Pump =yes (for both manual and powered). Pump = no f(or no pump application
at all).  Some tanks do have pumping systems while others have gutters.

fee = yes (people pay to access water) Every water system establish
involves payment for establishment whether paid by individuals or the
government.
