Washington has 1,913 active transient non-community water systems, 41% 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 Morning Sun Estates?

Does Morning Sun Estates have drinking water violations?
EPA's records list 5 violations for this system; 3 are health-based, and the most recent began in November 2016. The violations listed here began between February 2006 and November 2016. By type: 3 contaminant level above the legal limit, 1 monitoring and 1 monitoring and reporting. The contaminant or rule involved most often is Total coliform bacteria (TCR) (4 of them). EPA lists 3 as archived and 2 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.
