BLACK MTN UTILITY/DAYHOIT is one of 209 community water systems in Kentucky in the 501 to 3,300 people size category, serving 1,954 people from surface water.
As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 22 entries between 1992 and 2025, all of which EPA lists as closed.
Of the 22, 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 Consumer Confidence Rule, and the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
