Water OperationsMPS Water Treatment Plant 215 23rd St N

Operations:
Each day, Moorhead Public Service customers use an average of 4 million gallons of water. Around the clock, our highly trained and experienced professionals operate the Water Treatment Plant. Of the nine full-time licensed operators, all nine hold Class A licenses (the highest of four possible designations, from A through D). Together, they have over 130 years of experience. This superior level of knowledge and expertise contribute to the quality water coming out of your tap.

Eight-five percent of Moorhead's water comes from the Red River, while the rest is pumped from a total of seven wells. Moorhead is fortunate to have multiple water-supply sources. MPS stands ready to meet customers' needs in case of drought or possible contamination of any of our water resources.

Customer Base:
Moorhead Public Service provides water and water service to residents and businesses within the City of Moorhead. MPS also sells water to residents of Oakport and Americana Estates, as well as wholesale water supply to the City of Dilworth.
