Public Works Utilities

Mankato Water Tower

Utilities include Mankato's water treatment and wastewater treatment services.

Mankato strives to offer the highest quality drinking water and meet the community’s expanding water needs in the most environmentally sensitive, cost-effective way for residents.

Mankato’s drinking water meets and exceeds all state and federal standards for high quality water and is in full compliance with the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act.Mankato's Wastewater Treatment Plant is a state leader in meeting wastewater quality standards because the treated wastewater Mankato discharges into the Minnesota Rivers is virtually pollution-free. Mankato's water reclamation facility provides advanced wastewater treatment. Using recycled water instead of taking it from ground water protects our ground water resources. The City of Mankato realized a savings of at least $10 million for this first of its kind agreement.
