OLIVE HILL MUNICIPAL WATER WORKS is one of 150 community water systems in Kentucky in the 3,301 to 10,000 people size category, serving 6,192 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 30 entries between 1992 and 2018, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2018.
Of the 30, 15 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 the Total Coliform Rules, the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, and volatile organic chemicals.
