WARDS 4 & 5 WATER SYSTEM is one of 509 community water systems in Louisiana in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,002 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 9 entries between 1993 and 2019, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2019.
Of the 9, 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 Groundwater Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
