    The Future of Minnesota Drinking Water: A Framework for Managing Risk
    (2020-02) Calow, Peter; Lewandowski, Ann; Levers, Lucia; Kirby, Eileen
    The charge for this report was to identify opportunities for the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) to better manage risks to Minnesota’s drinking water. In addition to examining literature and experience in other jurisdictions, our recommendations are informed by ten discussions with a panel of research and policy experts, and a panel of stakeholders including representatives of large and small community utilities, the water technology industry, state agencies, and well owners.

    Lessons from Drinking Water Professionals: An Assessment of Drinking Water Governance in Minnesota
    (2023-12) Calow, Peter; Lewandowski, Marcelle
    Drinking water is life-giving, essential, and finite. Its management is messy, complex, and far-reaching. In 2022, the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) announced that it would be developing a statewide drinking water plan to guide the management of drinking water over the next ten years. To inform the development of that plan, MDH also chose to conduct an assessment of the current governance of systems impacting drinking water in order to identify challenges and opportunities in the systems themselves which the statewide plan could address. This report summarizes the input received from focus group conversations and a survey with drinking water professionals based on an established set of criteria known as the Governance Assessment Framework.
