CITY OF SHEPHERD is one of 817 community water systems in Texas in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 3,411 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 14 entries between 2004 and 2007, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2007.

Of the 14, 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 the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule and the Consumer Confidence Rule.
