Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,861 Idaho systems (95%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Crossroads of Idaho?
EPA lists Crossroads of Idaho as owned by a local government. The ID 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 26 active systems in Jerome County (19%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Crossroads of Idaho have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in July 2025. The violations listed here began between July 2003 and July 2025. By type: 10 monitoring and reporting, 1 reporting and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminants or rules involved are Lead and Copper Rule Revisions, Nitrite, Lead and Copper Rule and Heptachlor epoxide. EPA lists 9 as resolved, 2 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.
