Does Holiday Valley have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 9 violations for this system; none is health-based, and the most recent began in September 2021. The violations listed here began between October 1979 and September 2021. By type: 7 monitoring and reporting and 2 monitoring. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (4 of them). EPA lists 5 as archived and 4 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.
