Fischbach said “These investments will make a real difference for families and communities across District 7 Northern and Western Minnesota. Reliable water and waste management systems are essential for public health and quality of life.” Fischbach is proud to secure these resources that will strengthen these communities.

These funding investments will allow modernization of sanitary system and address aging infrastructure. The 4 million dollar investment will enhance water and waste management, supporting community growth.
