HIGHLAND BAYOU ESTATES WSC is one of 4,188 community water systems in Texas in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 30 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 12 entries between 2004 and 2016, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2016.

Of the 12, 11 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 the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, the Consumer Confidence Rule, and the Lead and Copper Rule.

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. EPA’s revised CCR rule takes effect January 1, 2027, and the first reports in the new format are due July 1, 2027.
