GILARK WATER SYSTEM is one of 509 community water systems in Louisiana in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 675 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 16 entries between 1993 and 2025, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.

Of the 16, 5 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 Consumer Confidence Rule, the Lead and Copper Rule, and the Public Notice Rule and Revised PN Rule.
