What is done to ensure the water is safe to drink?
SPRWS complies with the standards for drinking water as prescribed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Safe Drinking Water Act and the Minnesota Department of Health. The Department of Health and the utility monitor the water at prescribed, mandatory intervals.

Since 1999, all water utilities have been required to prepare an annual water quality report that outlines water sources, substances detected in the water in the previous year and at what levels, along with helpful information. Contact Customer Service at (651)266-6350 to request a copy.
