SHAWNEE WCA is one of 1,060 community water systems in Colorado in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 50 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 20 entries between 1991 and 2022, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2022.
Of the 20, 18 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 Surface Water Treatment Rules.
