Alaska has 227 active non-transient non-community water systems, 17% of the state's 1,322 active systems. Purchased surface water means the system buys surface water from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 67 Alaska systems (5.1%) list purchased surface water as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Prudhoe Bay Hotel?

Does Prudhoe Bay Hotel have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2025. The violations listed here began between January 2005 and January 2025. By type: 12 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (4 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved and 2 as archived. 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.
