Does Old Pinery Recreation Area have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2025. The violations listed here began between August 2017 and January 2025. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting, 2 monitoring and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Nitrate (6 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.
