Does Pine Meadow Mhc 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 2021. The violations listed here began between January 2000 and October 2021. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting, 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (4 of them). EPA lists 10 as resolved and 2 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.
