## Resource

Minot’s water future is shifting fast as the city gears up to draw 90% of its supply from Lake Sakakawea via the Northwest Area Water Supply project. The Biota Water Plant, set to launch by August’s end, could start delivering water as early as fall. City council just approved $350K for essential equipment like snowplows and skid steers — all reimbursable by the state. This major infrastructure leap is poised to secure Minot’s water needs with speed and support. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
