How does Pathway Christian School compare with other water systems in Washington County?

By EPA's size categories, Pathway Christian School is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Washington County has 24 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 670 people per system, and accounts for 0.7% of the 16,082 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Iowa, the 1,828 active systems average 1,718 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Pathway Christian 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. Iowa has 118 active non-transient non-community water systems, 6.5% of the state's 1,828 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,502 Iowa systems (82%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Pathway Christian School?

EPA lists Pathway Christian School as under public/private ownership. The IA state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 4 of the 24 active systems in Washington County (17%) are also under public/private ownership.

Does Pathway Christian School have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in December 2025. The violations listed here began between October 2000 and December 2025. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting and 3 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (3 of them). 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.
