(North Dakota Monitor) – Information about North Dakota’s public water systems is available in the newly released 2024 Drinking Water Compliance Report prepared by the North Dakota Department of Environmental Quality.

“The purpose of the annual report is to improve consumer awareness of drinking water compliance issues,” said Greg Wavra, administrator of the North Dakota Department of Environmental Quality’s Drinking Water Program.

North Dakota’s public water systems maintain an excellent Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) compliance record, with 99 percent of public water systems meeting all health-based standards. All community water systems have undergone a sanitary survey within the past three years. In 2024, the department issued 195 certificates of compliance to public water systems.
