EDS WATER SERVICE BILLINGS is one of 1,084 community water systems in Montana in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 120 people from surface water.
EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2010; the record below is historical.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 9 entries between 1992 and 2009, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2009.
Of the 9, 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, the Consumer Confidence Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.
