How does Valley View Heights compare with other water systems in Lemhi County?
By EPA's size categories, Valley View Heights is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Lemhi County has 42 active public water systems. Its population served is about half of the county average of 138 people per system, and accounts for 1.1% of the 5,780 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Idaho, the 1,961 active systems average 899 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so Valley View Heights is well below that figure.
What does “community water system” mean?

Homes, apartments and mobile-home parks are served by these. Idaho has 765 active community water systems, 39% of the state's 1,961 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 1,861 Idaho systems (95%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates Valley View Heights?

Does Valley View Heights have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 3 are health-based, and the most recent began in July 2025. The violations listed here began between July 2019 and July 2025. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting, 3 required treatment not met and 2 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (5 of them). EPA lists 9 as resolved, 2 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.
