Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2025. The violations listed here began between May 2009 and January 2025. By type: 4 monitoring, 4 monitoring and reporting and 4 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (4 of them). EPA lists 11 as resolved and 1 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.
