MERTARVIK WATER SYSTEM is one of 698 community water systems in Alaska in the 500 or fewer people size category, serving 170 people from groundwater.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 6 entries between 2023 and 2025, all of which EPA lists as closed.
All 6 are monitoring and reporting requirements — the category that accounts for about four in five of all violations in EPA's national dataset — rather than findings about the water itself. The record involves volatile organic chemicals, the Radionuclides and Revised Rad Rule, and the Total Coliform Rules.
