Source & Supply

Water within North Mankato city limits is supplied from a groundwater source via five wells that range in depth from 681 to 860 feet. Water is drawn from the Mt. Simon aquifer.

There are over 406,000 feet of water main and 1,488 valves in North Mankato.

The Water Department maintains 647 Fire Hydrants. Maintenance includes flushing all hydrants twice a year, which flushes the water main and enables them to check that the hydrant is working properly.

The department is also responsible for locating water and sewer services and the daily operation of the storm and sanitary stations.
