Drinking water in The Woodlands, Texas is delivered through 21 EPA-regulated community water systems serving an estimated 157,115 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.

PlainEnviro's health-based SDWIS extract shows 22 violation records across the 21 active community systems shown here. Monitoring and reporting records are not present in the extract. The records carry 5 distinct EPA contaminant codes: LEAD AND COPPER RULE REVISIONS, Gross Alpha, Excl. Radon and U, Revised Total Coliform Rule, TTHM, Lead and Copper Rule. 2 TRI-reporting industrial facilities are also located within the city limits.

For current water-quality status and treatment practices, review your local utility's most recent Consumer Confidence Report or contact the Texas drinking water program. All records above reflect federal EPA SDWIS data and are not independently verified against state databases.
