Hibbing Gets $1M Water Upgrade

Hibbing’s water future just got a major upgrade—with $1 million in federal funding now secured to overhaul its aging system. Congressman Pete Stauber helped make it happen after touring local utilities and pushing for the money in a key appropriations bill. The Hib-WATER project will replace century-old pipes, build a new well and treatment plant, automate operations, and reinforce a 100-year-old reservoir—critical steps to prevent a potential citywide water crisis. This vital investment keeps the project on track and eases the financial strain on residents, while also benefiting other Iron Range communities receiving similar funding.
