CAVE CREEK WATER is one of 84 community water systems in Arizona in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 5,895 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 17 entries between 1981 and 2007, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2007.
Of the 17, 16 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 inorganic chemicals, volatile organic chemicals, and the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule.
