CITY OF BENJAMIN is one of 4,188 community water systems in Texas in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 235 people from surface water.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 6 entries between 1979 and 2010, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2010.

The record involves the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule and inorganic chemicals.

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.
