CITY OF MARKS is one of 794 community water systems in Mississippi in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 2,099 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 20 entries between 2008 and 2024, all of which EPA lists as closed.
All 20 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 Groundwater Rule.
