Does Burnt Mill Settlement have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in October 2025. The violations listed here began between January 2025 and October 2025.

The contaminants or rules involved are Lead and Copper Rule, Consumer Confidence Rule, Chlorobenzene and 1,2-Dichloropropane. EPA lists 10 as archived, 1 as unaddressed and 1 as resolved. 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.
