The Three Affiliated Tribes will break ground June 25 on a new water facility to support the growing Fort Berthold Rural Water Systems, according to KXNET. The original facility, built in 1994, serves all six segments on the reservation.
The tribes plan on opening a new office that will provide additional storage for pipes and materials used for operations and maintenance. A site introduction and traditional ground blessing by MHA Nation will begin at 11 a.m. at 3922 95th Ave NW in New Town, North Dakota. MHA Nation Chairman Mark Fox is expected to attend the ceremony.
