EPA's records list 11 violations for this system; 3 are health-based, and the most recent began in January 2021. The violations listed here began between October 1984 and January 2021.

The contaminant or rule involved most often is Revised Total Coliform Rule (4 of them). EPA lists 8 as resolved and 3 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.
