Purchased groundwater means the system buys groundwater from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 76 California systems (1%) list purchased groundwater as their primary source.

EPA lists Santa Rosa Rancheria as Native American-owned. The EPA Region 09 is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act.
Does Santa Rosa Rancheria have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in July 2025. The violations listed here began between November 2024 and July 2025. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 4 monitoring and 3 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (4 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved and 2 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.
