TOWER CITY CITY OF is one of 357 community water systems in North Dakota in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 253 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 3 entries between 1992 and 2015, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2015.
Of the 3, 2 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 and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
