Texas has 1,622 active transient non-community water systems, 23% of the state's 7,078 active systems. Groundwater under the influence of surface water is well or spring water that the regulator has found to be affected by nearby surface water, so it is regulated under the surface-water treatment rules. 37 Texas systems (0.5%) list groundwater under influence of surface water as their primary source.

Does Specht Store have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in March 2026. The violations listed here began between September 2025 and March 2026. By type: 5 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 4 required treatment not met and 3 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Public Notice (5 of them). EPA lists 7 as archived, 2 as unaddressed, 2 as resolved and 1 as addressed. 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. 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. Addressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is covered by formal enforcement.
