Ham Lake sewer & Anoka County programs

Anoka County septic and well loan programs — and the county's 400+ mile road network Ham Lake sits on

Anoka County runs two important funding programs for homeowners: an AgBMP well/septic loan and a Conservation District SSTS Fix-Up Grant. Most relevant to Ham Lake homeowners on well/septic systems — but useful background for anyone dealing with property-transition drain diagnostics.

Anoka County offers an AgBMP loan up to $100,000 at 3% interest, a 90% / 80% SSTS grant tier structure, and maintains 400+ mi of county roads per year.

Who handles what in Ham Lake

Sewer service in Ham Lake is handled by PRIMARILY SEPTIC / individual SSTS — Ham Lake does NOT appear on the official MCES "Communities We Serve" list, unlike n. Here is who to call for what, plus the current ordinances that affect Ham Lake homeowners.

Ham Lake Public Works Department

Homeowner vs. city responsibility

In most Minnesota cities, the property owner is responsible for the sewer service line from the house to the point where it connects to the city main. Rules vary by city — call Public Works if you are unsure whether a problem is on your side or theirs.

If you have a backup and are not sure whether it is on your side or the city's, we can put a camera down and confirm before anyone digs.

📍 Local construction update

$18M federal grant for Hwy 65 / Bunker Lake Blvd interchange in Ham Lake

What's happening in Ham Lake right now

Ham Lake just got a major infrastructure win. The U.S. Department of Transportation awarded $18 million through the BUILD program for the Highway 65 and Bunker Lake Boulevard interchange project, announced by Senators Klobuchar and Smith on July 10. The grant funds construction of a grade-separated interchange at Highway 65 and Bunker Lake Boulevard — one of Ham Lake's most heavily used intersections — as part of the larger initiative to convert Highway 65 into a freeway with grade-separated interchanges. Anoka County had already secured $4.3 million in state funds for the Highway 65/Bunker Lake corridor in 2026. Design and environmental planning are underway, with right-of-way acquisition planned for 2026–2027 and target construction start in 2028.

What this means for your drains

An interchange project doesn't touch your house today, but it changes long-term drainage patterns in a big way. What we typically see when a major grade-separated interchange gets built:

  • Utility relocations before construction — during right-of-way acquisition and design phases (right now through 2027), the city and county coordinate underground utility relocations. Homes and businesses near the intersection can see temporary service disruptions and, occasionally, permanent damage to sanitary laterals
  • Increased truck traffic on secondary roads through Ham Lake during the construction years — older iron and clay pipe under those streets doesn't handle vibration well
  • Runoff pattern shifts — a new interchange with new grading pushes stormwater into different watersheds; homes downstream of the intersection may see more or different runoff than before

Ham Lake is largely well-and-septic outside the developed corridor, and that means the drain plumbing between your fixtures and the septic tank is on you. We handle floor drains, kitchen lines, laundry lines, and drain tile — cable, hydro-jet, and camera.

Call 612-382-7397 or book a camera inspection.
