CALCASIEU WW #14 WARD 5 is one of 509 community water systems in Louisiana in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 3,150 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 10 entries between 1994 and 2021, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2021.
Of the 10, 6 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 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Consumer Confidence Rule.
