CITY OF UNION is one of 161 community water systems in Mississippi in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 3,432 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 8 entries between 1981 and 2024, all of which EPA lists as closed.
Of the 8, 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 Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
