SIERRA COUNTRY ESTATES is one of 293 community water systems in Nevada in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 47 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 19 entries between 2005 and 2013, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2013.
Of the 19, 11 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 Lead and Copper Rule, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Consumer Confidence Rule.
