WAPELLO MUNICIPAL WATER WORKS is one of 403 community water systems in Iowa in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 2,096 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 5 entries between 1993 and 2018, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2018.

Of the 5, 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, the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and inorganic chemicals.
