How does Averys compare with other water systems in Apache County?

By EPA's size categories, Averys is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Apache County has 47 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 493 people per system, and accounts for 0.4% of the 23,153 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Arizona, the 1,769 active systems average 4,369 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Averys is well below that figure.

What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?

A non-transient non-community water system regularly serves at least 25 of the same people for more than six months a year, but not where they live. Schools, factories, office buildings and hospitals with their own supply are typical examples. Arizona has 232 active non-transient non-community water systems, 13% of the state's 1,769 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,612 Arizona systems (91%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Averys?

EPA lists Averys as privately owned. The AZ state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 24 of the 47 active systems in Apache County (51%) are also privately owned.

Does Averys have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in March 2026. The violations listed here began between January 2023 and March 2026. By type: 5 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 3 monitoring, 3 monitoring and reporting and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Public Notice (5 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved, 3 as archived and 1 as unaddressed. Resolved means at least one resolving action is on record: the system returned to compliance, the rule no longer applies, or no further action was needed. Archived means the violation was not marked resolved but is more than five years past the end of the noncompliance period, so it no longer counts toward current compliance status. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
