SILVER CREEK is one of 403 community water systems in Iowa in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, formerly serving 673 people from surface water.
EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2016; the record below is historical.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 4 entries between 2004 and 2009, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2009.
Of the 4, 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 Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
