Does Pinewood Estates North have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in August 2018. The violations listed here began between November 1995 and August 2018. By type: 6 monitoring and reporting, 5 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Consumer Confidence Rule (5 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved and 4 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.
