IONE WATER DEPT is one of 428 community water systems in Washington in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 2,395 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 9 entries between 1979 and 2024, all of which EPA lists as closed.
Of the 9, 6 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 Total Coliform Rules, inorganic chemicals, and the Consumer Confidence Rule.
