ALVORD MUNICIPAL WATER SUPPLY is one of 1,221 community water systems in Iowa in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 206 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 10 entries between 1978 and 1995, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1995.

Of the 10, 7 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, synthetic organic chemicals, and volatile organic chemicals.
