Idaho has 954 active transient non-community water systems, 49% of the state's 1,961 active systems.

Who owns and regulates Sand Hills Resort?

Does Sand Hills Resort have drinking water violations?

EPA's records list 10 violations for this system; 2 are health-based, and the most recent began in August 2023. The violations listed here began between July 1998 and August 2023. By type: 6 monitoring and reporting, 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 1 required treatment not met, 1 monitoring and 1 contaminant level above the legal limit. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (5 of them). EPA lists 6 as archived, 3 as resolved and 1 as unaddressed. 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. 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.
