How does Crazy Horse School compare with other water systems in South Dakota?

By EPA's size categories, Crazy Horse School is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Across South Dakota, the 699 active systems average 1,387 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Crazy Horse School 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. South Dakota has 510 active community water systems, 73% of the state's 699 active systems. Purchased surface water means the system buys surface water from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 142 South Dakota systems (20%) list purchased surface water as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Crazy Horse School?

EPA lists Crazy Horse School as owned by the federal government. The EPA Region 08 is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Does Crazy Horse School have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 3 are health-based, and the most recent began in December 2025. The violations listed here began between December 2018 and December 2025. By type: 8 monitoring and reporting, 2 contaminant level above the legal limit, 1 monitoring and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Lead and Copper Rule (4 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.
