Does Chickasaw Village have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 11 violations for this system; 4 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2023. The violations listed here began between November 1991 and January 2023. By type: 5 public notice, recordkeeping or other, 4 contaminant level above the legal limit and 2 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Consumer Confidence Rule (5 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved, 2 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.
