Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,994 Montana systems (84%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Wyola Water System?

EPA lists Wyola Water System as Native American-owned. The EPA Region 08 is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Does Wyola Water System have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in March 2026. The violations listed here began between January 2024 and March 2026. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting, 2 monitoring and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (2 of them). EPA lists 9 as resolved and 3 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.
