Service Description: Most of us have an ample supply of high quality drinking water. There are areas of Montana, however, where the tap water looks bad, smells or tastes worse, and does not meet federal drinking water standards. Some sources are highly mineralized or limited in quantity. Many rural water users and residents of some small communities haul their drinking water.
Four rural water systems are currently in various stages of development. The Fort Peck-Dry Prairie regional system has been under construction for more than 15 years, and Rocky Boy’s-North Central for nearly 12 years. Currently (2021) in total, these systems deliver water to at least 26 communities or water districts, several public entities, and thousands of rural customers. The other two systems have progressed through planning and development stages and are currently designing or constructing pipeline projects. When these systems are all complete, tens of thousands of Montana households will receive clean and plentiful drinking water from regional water systems.
The Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation provides the following support to Montana Regional Water Systems:
Maintaining contacts with the local system authorities.
Administer State grants to the regional water authorities.
Ensuring participation by State agencies involved in review and/or implementation.
Liaison work to Tribal governments and Federal governmental agencies.
Providing a contact for those with questions about regional water.
