PORTAGE WATERWORKS is one of 87 community water systems in Wisconsin in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 10,437 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 46 entries in 1993, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 1993.

All 46 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.
