It lists the contaminants detected in the system’s water during the year, where the water comes from, and how the results compare with federal limits.

THE FARM WATER SYSTEM is one of 538 community water systems in Tennessee in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 210 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 13 entries between 1979 and 2002, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2002.

All 13 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 Lead and Copper Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
