MILES WATER DEPARTMENT is one of 1,221 community water systems in Iowa in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 408 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 29 entries between 1986 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.

Of the 29, 28 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 volatile organic chemicals, synthetic organic chemicals, and the Total Coliform Rules.
