BARLING WATERWORKS is one of 118 community water systems in Arkansas in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 5,822 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 2 entries between 2007 and 2018, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2018.
All 2 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.
