Talking to the water company installing new water mains/meters for the new
build here, it seems my water main in the street is asbestos!!!

so drinking asbestos doesn't harm you apparently.

So why don't they just hose down asbestos when thy pull it out of
buildings? And then chuck it in a pond to get rid of it?

Anyone foolish enough to inhale the water deserves to get a lung condition.
