I have not found anything that directs on water quality or source.
Commercially Organic foodstuff is not the 'perfect' product that people falsely believe. Read the following link. You will be surprised what they are allowed to put in 'organic foodstuffs and still claim the organic label' Even when they are not permitted by the certification programme the grower can get an exceptional ruling to use a non-organic product if he can give good reason.
This is normal in these standards: I quote from link below:
'Fertilisers are not covered by these Standards or Regulation (EEC) No. 2092/91. However, Annex II A of these Standards lists those fertilisers and soil conditioners which may, under certain circumstances, be used as a complement to organically derived green and animal manures in organic farming'

Organic means that it has living cells therefore all food that is grown is organic. The rest is just more propaganda.

Of course! If it were not organic it would have to be inorganic which is not edible and therefore not food.
