EL MAR ESTATES MSLA CO WATER is one of 123 community water systems in Montana in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,350 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 16 entries between 1996 and 2005, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2005.

Of the 16, 15 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 inorganic chemicals, the Total Coliform Rules, and synthetic organic chemicals.
