Of course. No doubt you're paying for part of the costs of water delivery in
Indianapolis, too (though not mine specifically, because I'm on a private
well).

are you advocating that there be no
federal money paid for infrastructure in any state?

Yes -- unless it's for a purpose authorized by the Constitution.
Building dams in Arizona, and forcing the people of Hawaii,
Indiana, Alabama, and Maine to pay them goes quite a bit beyond
the legitimate authority of the Federal government.

Careful there, boy, or you won't have any winter fruits
and veggies from California.

What, you think that there wouldn't be any produce from California if the
Federal government didn't subsidize it? Don't be ridiculous. If there's a
market demand for it, somebody will step up to satisfy the demand. That's the
way a free-market economy works.
