How does Federal Correctional Inst compare with other water systems in Pima County?
By EPA's size categories, Federal Correctional Inst is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Pima County has 193 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 5,896 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 1,137,975 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Arizona, the 1,769 active systems average 4,369 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Federal Correctional Inst is well below that figure.
What does “community water system” mean?
A community water system serves at least 15 connections used by year-round residents, or regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents. Homes, apartments and mobile-home parks are served by these. Arizona has 936 active community water systems, 53% 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 Federal Correctional Inst?
EPA lists Federal Correctional Inst as owned by the federal 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. 9 of the 193 active systems in Pima County (4.7%) are also owned by the federal government.
Does Federal Correctional Inst have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 3 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between July 2023 and January 2026. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 3 reporting, 2 required treatment not met, 1 contaminant level above the legal limit and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (2 of them). EPA lists 11 as resolved and 1 as archived. 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.
