Does Boise Creek Cg-Snrf have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in June 2023. The violations listed here began between December 1983 and June 2023. By type: 10 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 1 monitoring and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminants or rules involved are Revised Total Coliform Rule and Surface Water Treatment Rule. EPA lists 10 as archived and 2 as resolved.

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.
