CARTHAGE is one of 583 community water systems in South Dakota in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 218 people from groundwater.
EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2001; the record below is historical.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 6 entries between 1976 and 1997, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1997.
Of the 6, 5 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 synthetic organic chemicals, the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
