How does Alpine Inn compare with other water systems in Kenai Peninsula Borough County?

What does “transient non-community water system” mean?

A transient non-community water system serves places where people do not stay long, such as gas stations and campgrounds, and regularly serves at least 25 people a day for at least 60 days a year. Alaska has 689 active transient non-community water systems, 52% of the state's 1,322 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,054 Alaska systems (80%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Alpine Inn?

EPA lists Alpine Inn as privately owned. The AK state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 158 of the 205 active systems in Kenai Peninsula Borough County (77%) are also privately owned.

Does Alpine Inn have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in September 2025. The violations listed here began between June 2024 and September 2025. By type: 6 monitoring, 2 reporting, 2 required treatment not met, 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (10 of them). EPA lists 5 as unaddressed, 4 as archived and 3 as resolved. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement. 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. 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.
