ERATA WATER ASSOCIATION is one of 794 community water systems in Mississippi in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 818 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 13 entries between 1981 and 2012, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2012.
Of the 13, 11 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 Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule and the Miscellaneous Other Rules.
