How does West Hills Subdivision compare with other water systems in Reno County?
By EPA's size categories, West Hills Subdivision is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Reno County has 25 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 2,025 people per system, and accounts for 0.1% of the 50,620 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Kansas, the 1,041 active systems average 2,800 people each. Nationally, the average active community water system reports serving 6,703 people, so West Hills Subdivision is well below that figure.

Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 587 Kansas systems (56%) list groundwater as their primary source.
Who owns and regulates West Hills Subdivision?

Does West Hills Subdivision have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between January 2023 and January 2026. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting, 4 monitoring and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (4 of them). EPA lists 6 as resolved, 4 as archived and 2 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.
