There are a few terms. Water can be stored in a reservoir. Reservoirs can be natural lakes; they can also be made with dams and dikes, as is the case with the Quabbin Reservoir in western MA. The Quabbin floods a valley that once contained some towns; there was a 'taking' of the land for the public good when the reservoir was built in order to help supply Boston with water. There are people still living who were residents of those towns. Sometime water is stored in a cistern, which is a constructed and lined pit made for the storage of water and/or ice. Water is also 'stored' in what is called an aquifer. This is a geological formation of various kinds of rock that holds large amounts of water underground. Wells will sometimes tap this aquifer as their source of water.
