How does Tronox compare with other water systems in Monroe County?
By EPA's size categories, Tronox is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Monroe County has 13 active public water systems.

Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Tronox is about 16% above 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. Mississippi has 78 active non-transient non-community water systems, 6.9% of the state's 1,133 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,053 Mississippi systems (93%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Tronox?
EPA lists Tronox as privately owned. The MS state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 1 of the 13 active systems in Monroe County (7.7%) are also privately owned.
Does Tronox have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 6 violations for this system; 1 is health-based, and the most recent began in October 2024. The violations listed here began between February 1992 and October 2024. By type: 4 monitoring and reporting, 1 required treatment not met and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (2 of them).
