BUNKER PWS is one of 1,412 community water systems in Missouri in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 407 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 6 entries between 1980 and 2003, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2003.
Of the 6, 4 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, volatile organic chemicals, and the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule.
