Does Camp Kanata have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 7 violations for this system; none is health-based, and the most recent began in October 2024. The violations listed here began between February 2006 and October 2024. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting and 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (3 of them). EPA lists 5 as resolved, 1 as addressed 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. Addressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is covered by formal enforcement. 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.
