How does Beaver Dam State Park compare with other water systems in Lincoln County?
By EPA's size categories, Beaver Dam State Park is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Lincoln County has 17 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 322 people per system, and accounts for 0.5% of the 5,474 people reported by systems filed under the county.

Nevada has 258 active transient non-community water systems, 40% of the state's 643 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 557 Nevada systems (87%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Beaver Dam State Park?

The NV 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 17 active systems in Lincoln County (24%) are also owned by a state government.
Does Beaver Dam State Park have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 3 are health-based, and the most recent began in November 2022. The violations listed here began between June 1991 and November 2022. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting, 2 monitoring, 2 contaminant level above the legal limit and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (5 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.
