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.
Of the 76, 56 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 volatile organic chemicals, synthetic organic chemicals, and the Total Coliform Rules.
