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 October 2019 and January 2025. By type: 7 monitoring, 3 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 2 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (7 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.
