Beaver Bay is one of 739 community water systems in Minnesota in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 130 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 7 entries between 2005 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.
Of the 7, 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 Surface Water Treatment Rules, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
