ASHLAND WATER DEPARTMENT is one of 63 community water systems in Oregon in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 20,946 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 18 entries between 1976 and 2009, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2009.

All 18 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 the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
