How does Western Farmers compare with other water systems in Choctaw County?
By EPA's size categories, Western Farmers is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Choctaw County has 11 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 1,032 people per system, and accounts for 0.8% of the 11,353 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Oklahoma, the 1,254 active systems average 2,907 people each. Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Western Farmers is well below that figure.
What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?
A non-transient non-community water system regularly serves at least 25 of the same people for more than six months a year, but not where they live. Schools, factories, office buildings and hospitals with their own supply are typical examples. Oklahoma has 84 active non-transient non-community water systems, 6.7% of the state's 1,254 active systems. 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 Western Farmers?
EPA lists Western Farmers as privately owned. 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. 3 of the 11 active systems in Choctaw County (27%) are also privately owned.
Does Western Farmers have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 7 are health-based, and the most recent began in October 2025. The violations listed here began between January 2007 and October 2025. By type: 7 required treatment not met, 4 monitoring and reporting and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Carbon, total (6 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved and 2 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.
