UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI is among the 18 largest community water systems in Mississippi, serving 26,874 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 24 entries between 2008 and 2013, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2013.
Of the 24, 22 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 Total Coliform Rules.
