If you want to worry about (sterile) pee in untreated water, maybe you should worry about more important agents.

Giardiasis
Giardiasis is a diarrheal illness caused by Giardia lamblia, a microscopic parasite that lives in people and animals. Infected people and animals pass Giardia cysts in their stool. These cysts can survive in the environment in water and food and on surfaces and objects.

Giardia may be found in soil, food, water, or on surfaces that have been contaminated with feces from infected people or animals. People become infected after accidentally swallowing Giardia cysts. For example, hikers, backpackers, and campers sometimes get giardiasis by drinking from lakes, streams, and ponds that have been contaminated by animals. Giardiasis can also be spread from person-to-person, such as in day care centers that care for children in diapers.
