Does Eastside Water Association have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 3 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2025. The violations listed here began between March 2021 and January 2025. By type: 8 monitoring and reporting, 3 required treatment not met and 1 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Haloacetic acids (HAA5) (3 of them). EPA lists 6 as archived and 6 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.
