PARKS UTILITIES is one of 794 community water systems in Mississippi in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 898 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 14 entries between 2008 and 2017, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2017.
Of the 14, 12 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, volatile organic chemicals, and the Consumer Confidence Rule.
