PANORA WATER WORKS is one of 403 community water systems in Iowa in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,142 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 33 entries between 1983 and 2024, all of which EPA lists as closed.
Of the 33, 23 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, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
