Does Mountain View Elementary School have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 10 violations for this system; none is health-based, and the most recent began in January 2026. The violations listed here began between June 1979 and January 2026. By type: 9 monitoring and reporting and 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (7 of them). EPA lists 6 as resolved, 3 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.

Unaddressed means the violation is not resolved or archived and is not yet covered by formal enforcement.
