Does Strawberry Lake Campground have drinking water violations?

EPA's records list 10 violations for this system; 6 are health-based, and the most recent began in May 2019. The violations listed here began between April 1997 and May 2019. By type: 5 contaminant level above the legal limit, 2 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 2 monitoring and reporting and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (7 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. 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.
