Drinking water in Hamilton, Montana is delivered through 10 EPA-regulated community water systems serving an estimated 6,533 people. Each system is tracked in the EPA Safe Drinking Water Information System (SDWIS) under the Safe Drinking Water Act, which requires testing for regulated contaminants, consumer notification of violations, and publication of an annual Consumer Confidence Report.

The records carry 1 distinct EPA contaminant code: Lead and Copper Rule. 1 TRI-reporting industrial facility is also located within the city limits.

All records above reflect federal EPA SDWIS data and are not independently verified against state databases.
