What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?
A non-transient non-community water system regularly serves at least 25 of the same people for more than six months a year, but not where they live. Schools, factories, office buildings and hospitals with their own supply are typical examples. Alaska has 227 active non-transient non-community water systems, 17% 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 Set Free Alaska Snodgrass?

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. 282 of the 342 active systems in Matanuska-Susitna Borough County (82%) are also privately owned.
Does Set Free Alaska Snodgrass have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 9 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between October 2023 and January 2026. By type: 9 contaminant level above the legal limit and 3 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Arsenic (9 of them). EPA lists 9 as archived and 3 as resolved. 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.
