Maine has 1,091 active transient non-community water systems, 59% of the state's 1,862 active systems.

Who owns and regulates Abnaki Camping Center?

Does Abnaki Camping Center have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in September 2025. The violations listed here began between September 2022 and September 2025. By type: 6 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 5 monitoring and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Public Notice (6 of them). EPA lists 6 as unaddressed, 5 as resolved and 1 as archived. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement. 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.
