CHEWELAH WATER DEPT SOUTH is one of 428 community water systems in Washington in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 2,615 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 57 entries between 1979 and 2025, all of which EPA lists as closed.

Of the 57, 52 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, volatile organic chemicals, and the Total Coliform Rules.
