Does Chauncey have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in October 2025. The violations listed here began between January 2008 and October 2025. By type: 8 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 4 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Consumer Confidence Rule (8 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved, 3 as archived and 1 as unaddressed. 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.

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