MURRAY WATER WORKS is one of 403 community water systems in Iowa in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 684 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 13 entries between 1981 and 2006, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2006.
Of the 13, 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 Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and inorganic chemicals.
