Purchased groundwater means the system buys groundwater from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 302 Texas systems (4.3%) list purchased groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Roman Forest PUD 4?

EPA lists Roman Forest PUD 4 as owned by a local government.

Does Roman Forest PUD 4 have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in May 2026. The violations listed here began between March 2022 and May 2026. By type: 5 monitoring, 4 required treatment not met, 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (6 of them). EPA lists 7 as resolved, 3 as archived and 2 as unaddressed. 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
