Minnesota is the Land of 10,000 Lakes and the headwaters to the Mississippi River. An estimated 18 million people rely on the Mississippi River for their water supply, which means we have a responsibility to keep our water clean for our communities, other states and future generations. You can learn about our drinking water quality and threats to our drinking water resources at the We Are Water MN traveling exhibit, now on display at the State Capitol. Some of our staff visited the exhibit over lunch and shared their water stories! #WeAreWaterMN
