STANHOPE WATER DEPARTMENT is one of 1,221 community water systems in Iowa in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 364 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 7 entries between 1979 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.
Of the 7, 2 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, inorganic chemicals, and the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule.
