Who owns and regulates Red Community LLC?

Does Red Community LLC have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in November 2025. The violations listed here began between January 2020 and November 2025. By type: 11 monitoring and reporting and 1 monitoring. The contaminants or rules involved are Revised Total Coliform Rule, Lead and Copper Rule, Ethylene dibromide (EDB) and Heptachlor epoxide. EPA lists 10 as resolved, 1 as archived and 1 as unaddressed. 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. Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
