HOPKINSVILLE WATER ENVIRONMENT AUTHORITY is among the 18 largest community water systems in Kentucky, serving 41,350 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 37 entries between 1993 and 2015, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2015.
Of the 37, 30 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, the Surface Water Treatment Rules, and the Total Coliform Rules.
