KENSETT WATERWORKS is one of 376 community water systems in Arkansas in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,624 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 10 entries between 2005 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.

Of the 10, 6 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 Consumer Confidence Rule, and the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule.
