Provide input on Minnesota’s roadmap to ensure safe and sufficient drinking water into the future
Minnesota has an outstanding record of providing safe drinking water for customers on public water systems. Yet, there are risks and gaps to address so that everyone, everywhere in Minnesota has safe and sufficient drinking water. The DRAFT Minnesota Drinking Water Action Plan names key risks and gaps and proposes strategies to address them. Risks and gaps include limited protections for private well users, a shrinking drinking water workforce, as well as emerging risks from contaminants, pathogens and climate change. The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) coordinated the development of the Plan, incorporating expertise and feedback from water professionals, state and local governments, researchers, and Minnesotans who drink water.
MDH invites you to review the Plan and provide feedback by October 17.
The Plan, information sheet, and feedback form are at Future of Drinking Water.
