BLUEWELL COMMUNITY WATER is one of 760 community water systems in West Virginia in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 255 people from surface water.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2015; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 41 entries between 1993 and 2000, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2000.

Of the 41, 28 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 Miscellaneous Other Rules, volatile organic chemicals, and the Total Coliform Rules.
