Summary

Minot’s city council just approved a $1.2 million state-funded plan to inspect nearly 8,000 unknown water service lines for lead contamination — a major step toward ensuring safe drinking water for every resident. The first phase alone will examine 2,200 lines, with a contractor handling the heavy lifting. These service lines — the pipes connecting homes to the city’s main water supply — are critical to public health, and this effort marks a crucial milestone in Minot’s long-term effort to map and secure its underground infrastructure.
