Does Sunny Hills Utility Company have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in August 2020. The violations listed here began between April 2009 and August 2020. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting, 1 monitoring, 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Haloacetic acids (HAA5) (4 of them). EPA lists 10 as archived, 1 as resolved and 1 as addressed. 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.

Addressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is covered by formal enforcement.
