MAGNESS WATER ASSOCIATION is one of 363 community water systems in Arkansas in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 391 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 7 entries between 2000 and 2012, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2012.
Of the 7, 4 are monitoring and reporting requirements — the category that accounts for about four in five of all violations in EPA's national dataset — rather than findings about the water itself. The record involves the Total Coliform Rules, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Consumer Confidence Rule.
