Does Town of Springerville 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 2026. The violations listed here began between October 2023 and January 2026. By type: 8 monitoring and reporting, 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 1 monitoring and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Combined Radium (-226 and -228) (6 of them). EPA lists 11 as resolved and 1 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.
