Homes, apartments and mobile-home parks are served by these. Missouri has 1,612 active community water systems, 55% of the state's 2,943 active systems. Purchased groundwater means the system buys groundwater from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 177 Missouri systems (6%) list purchased groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Gilman City Pws?

The MO state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 8 of the 16 active systems in Harrison County (50%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Gilman City Pws have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 5 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between July 2006 and January 2026. By type: 5 contaminant level above the legal limit, 3 monitoring and reporting, 2 monitoring and 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total trihalomethanes (TTHM) (5 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.
