PRUDENCE ISLAND WATER DISTRICT serves 1,500 people from groundwater, placing it in the 501 to 3,300 people size category.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 76 entries between 1991 and 2025, all of which EPA lists as closed.

The record involves volatile organic chemicals, synthetic organic chemicals, and the Total Coliform Rules.
