Does Lakeshore Heights Mutual Water have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in April 2016. The violations listed here began between April 1984 and April 2016. By type: 6 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 5 monitoring and reporting and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Surface Water Treatment Rule (3 of them). EPA lists 6 as resolved and 6 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.
