Surface water means the system draws its water from rivers, lakes, streams or reservoirs. 175 Oklahoma systems (14%) list surface water as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Cleveland Municipal Authority?

The OK state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 12 of the 14 active systems in Pawnee County (86%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Cleveland Municipal Authority have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 10 are health-based, and the most recent began in October 2025. The violations listed here began between October 2024 and October 2025. By type: 10 contaminant level above the legal limit, 1 monitoring and reporting and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total trihalomethanes (TTHM) (8 of them). EPA lists 10 as archived and 2 as resolved. 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. 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.
