We stretch our minds. We roll up our sleeves. And since we don't know our limits, we don't seem to have any.
The State of Mississippi is blessed with an abundance of drinking water that is readily available. The state's more than 1,600 public water systems provide clean, safe drinking water for more than two million Mississippians.
The Mississippi State Department of Health, through its Division of Water Supply, is the regulatory agency for the state's public water systems. The Mississippi Drinking Water Program serves as a model to the nation for its cooperative efforts with water systems aimed at providing water that meets all Federal and State Safe Drinking Water Act Standards.
All new public water systems or systems that make significant improvements or expansions go through a plan review process with the Division of Water Supply staff to ensure the system operates effectively and safely.
