TENSAS WATER DISTRICT ASSOCIATION is one of 180 community water systems in Louisiana in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 3,843 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 31 entries between 1995 and 2026, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.

Of the 31, 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 the Surface Water Treatment Rules, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
