EPA's records list 9 violations for this system; 3 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2022. The violations listed here began between October 1980 and January 2022. By type: 3 contaminant level above the legal limit, 3 monitoring and reporting, 2 monitoring and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other.

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.
