What does “community water system” mean?

A community water system serves at least 15 connections used by year-round residents, or regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents. Homes, apartments and mobile-home parks are served by these. Washington has 2,392 active community water systems, 51% of the state's 4,705 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 4,370 Washington systems (93%) list groundwater as their primary source.

Who owns and regulates Burbank Irrigation District 4?

The WA state drinking water program is its primacy agency, the regulator with primary enforcement responsibility for the system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. 18 of the 69 active systems in Walla Walla County (26%) are also owned by a local government.

Does Burbank Irrigation District 4 have drinking water violations?

Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, 6 are health-based, and the most recent began in May 2020. The violations listed here began between October 1984 and May 2020. By type: 6 contaminant level above the legal limit, 5 monitoring and reporting and 1 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Nitrate (4 of them). EPA lists 7 as archived and 5 as resolved. 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. 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.
