EPA's records list 10 violations for this system; 7 are health-based, and the most recent began in October 2024. The violations listed here began between June 1992 and October 2024. By type: 7 contaminant level above the legal limit, 2 monitoring and reporting and 1 reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (9 of them). EPA lists 5 as resolved and 5 as archived. 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.
