As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 18 entries between 1981 and 2021, of which 1 remains open; none are health-based.
Of the 18, 17 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 inorganic chemicals, the Total Coliform Rules, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
