System type: Community Water System
Population served: 1,079

Onwel Garment is among the 15 largest community water systems in Northern Mariana Islands, formerly serving 1,079 people from groundwater.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2008; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 14 entries between 2001 and 2008, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2008.

Of the 14, 13 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 Lead and Copper Rule, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
