How does Ford-Newhouse Lane compare with other water systems in Washington?

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.

Does Ford-Newhouse Lane have drinking water violations?
Of the 12 most recent violations in EPA's records, one is health-based, and the most recent began in November 2025. The violations listed here began between January 2020 and November 2025. By type: 5 monitoring and reporting, 3 monitoring, 2 reporting, 1 public notice, recordkeeping or other and 1 required treatment not met. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (4 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. 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.
