How does Headrick compare with other water systems in Jackson County?
By EPA's size categories, Headrick is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Jackson County has 11 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 2,655 people per system, and accounts for 0.3% of the 29,205 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Oklahoma, the 1,254 active systems average 2,907 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Headrick is well below that figure.
What does “community water system” mean?
A community water system serves at least 15 connections used by year-round residents, or regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents. Homes, apartments and mobile-home parks are served by these. Oklahoma has 864 active community water systems, 69% of the state's 1,254 active systems. Purchased groundwater means the system buys groundwater from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 67 Oklahoma systems (5.3%) list purchased groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Headrick?
EPA lists Headrick as owned by a local government. 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. 9 of the 11 active systems in Jackson County (82%) are also owned by a local government.
Does Headrick have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 7 are health-based, and the most recent began in April 2025. The violations listed here began between April 2016 and April 2025. By type: 6 contaminant level above the legal limit, 4 monitoring and reporting, 1 required treatment not met and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total trihalomethanes (TTHM) (8 of them). EPA lists 6 as archived and 6 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.
