BOZEMAN CITY OF is the fifth largest community water system in Montana, serving 56,000 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 7 entries between 1993 and 2013, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2013.

Of the 7, 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 Total Coliform Rules, inorganic chemicals, and the Surface Water Treatment Rules.

It lists the contaminants detected in the system’s water during the year, where the water comes from, and how the results compare with federal limits. EPA’s revised CCR rule takes effect January 1, 2027, and the first reports in the new format are due July 1, 2027.
