How does Maunaloa-Kaluakoi compare with other water systems in Maui County?

By EPA's size categories, Maunaloa-Kaluakoi is a small system (501 to 3,300 people). Maui County has 39 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 4,338 people per system, and accounts for 0.6% of the 169,182 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Hawaii, the 136 active systems average 11,181 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Maunaloa-Kaluakoi is well below that figure.

What does “community water system” mean?

A community water system serves at least 15 connections used by year-round residents, or regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents. Homes, apartments and mobile-home parks are served by these. Hawaii has 119 active community water systems, 88% of the state's 136 active systems. Purchased groundwater means the system buys groundwater from another public water system rather than drawing its own. 14 Hawaii systems (10%) list purchased groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Maunaloa-Kaluakoi?

EPA lists Maunaloa-Kaluakoi as privately owned. The HI state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 22 of the 39 active systems in Maui County (56%) are also privately owned.

Does Maunaloa-Kaluakoi have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 7 are health-based, and the most recent began in October 2022. The violations listed here began between August 1993 and October 2022. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 4 required treatment not met and 3 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total trihalomethanes (TTHM) (3 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. 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
