EASTERN WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY is one of 111 community water systems in Washington in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 17,108 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 33 entries between 1979 and 2016, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2016.

All 33 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 Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
