How does Bouse Elementary School compare with other water systems in La Paz County?
By EPA's size categories, Bouse Elementary School is a very small system (500 people or fewer). La Paz County has 84 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 365 people per system, and accounts for 0.2% of the 30,640 people reported by systems filed under the county.

Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Bouse Elementary School 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 Bouse Elementary School?
EPA lists Bouse Elementary School as owned by a local government. 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. 5 of the 84 active systems in La Paz County (6%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Bouse Elementary School have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between October 2024 and January 2026. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting, 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Arsenic (9 of them). EPA lists 7 as resolved, 3 as archived and 2 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.
