Add the ability to excavate for freshwater man made lakes and reservoirs.Which could be constructed from a range of materials, such as rock, earth, concrete or Plastic liner An earthen embankment could have a watertight concrete face or a core of clay which could be found excavating down to the games already ground water levels. A new pumping station could be added with a water treatment plant.The reservoir could also be filled with water that has been desalinated from the sea. And of course rainwater.

Fresh water would be very useful but for realism I think water would also need to get polluted, so you cant dump sewage and pump out water. I dont know if the game mechanics allow this.

You can make salt water lakes easy enough. Dig out the lake then link a shallow dyke to the sea to fill it up then fill in the dyke.
