Here is what the EPA's own data shows about tap water in Meadow. According to EPA SDWIS data retrieved October 2026, Meadow is served by 1 active community water system, together reported to serve about 592 people.
As of October 2026, EPA records show 80 violations across the community water system(s) serving Meadow, going back to the earliest EPA record. 10 of these are classified by the EPA as health-based (a contaminant recorded above the limit the EPA tracks); the rest are monitoring or reporting violations. Each is listed by system below, with its status.
Health-based Arsenic: a health-based violation (a contaminant recorded above the limit the EPA tracks), recorded 10 times between April 2017 and July 2024. The EPA record lists a level of 0.012 MG/L; the limit (MCL) is 0.01 MG/L. All have since returned to compliance, per EPA records.
Monitoring Public Notice: a monitoring or reporting violation (a required test or report was late or missed — not a measured exceedance), recorded 29 times between May 2005 and April 2026. EPA records do not show all of these as returned to compliance.
Monitoring Revised Total Coliform Rule: a monitoring or reporting violation (a required test or report was late or missed — not a measured exceedance), recorded 12 times between June 2020 and April 2026. EPA records do not show all of these as returned to compliance.
Monitoring Lead and Copper Rule: a monitoring or reporting violation (a required test or report was late or missed — not a measured exceedance), recorded 9 times between October 2011 and January 2026. EPA records do not show all of these as returned to compliance.
Monitoring Chlorine: a monitoring or reporting violation (a required test or report was late or missed — not a measured exceedance), recorded 12 times between April 2016 and October 2025. EPA records do not show all of these as returned to compliance.
Monitoring Consumer Confidence Rule: a monitoring or reporting violation (a required test or report was late or missed — not a measured exceedance), recorded 8 times between January 2006 and July 2025. EPA records do not show all of these as returned to compliance.
What this means
A health-based violation means a contaminant was recorded above the limit the EPA tracks for it. A monitoring or reporting violation means a required test or report was late or missed — not that a contaminant was measured above a limit. “Returned to compliance” means the EPA recorded the issue as resolved.
